He really hates Piso but has to be careful not to upset Pompey and Caesar, whose father-in-law Piso was. He refused to be a fourth ruler himself. Mistake? Scaurus and Fonteius xenophobically defended.

I'd recommend this because it contains Asconius' giving an unbiased account of events and Milo's trial. It's lovely Cicero was so loyal to his friend who helped have him recalled from exile but was put off by Clodius' supporters and faltered. This is his published version, which, Milo wryly remarks on, that had it been delivered he'd never have known delightful Marseilles mullet - and that would've been unjust.
