3rd book on Cicero. Read after Neal Wood's book on the chronological order of publishing time; summarized much of Wood's content well.
Revealed the mixed character of Cicero well - showing his struggling being a firm Republican, while being protected by Pompey & Caesar (the dictators).
Definitely reading more on the Roman Republic!
