Reviews
British academic McHugh, who has written on the Emperor Commodus and other subjects, does a masterful job in giving us this life of Alexander Severus set within his unstable times which presaged even more instability... This is a rich work, and valuable for anyone with an interest in the Roman Empire.

Synopsis
Alexander Severus' is full of controversy and contradictions. He came to the throne through the brutal murder of his cousin, Elagabalus, and was ultimately assassinated himself. The years between were filled with regular uprisings and rebellions, court intrigue (the Praetorian Guard slew their commander at the Emperor's feet) and foreign invasion. Yet the ancient sources generally present his reign as a golden age of just government, prosperity and religious tolerance Not yet fourteen when he became emperor, Alexander was dominated by his mother, Julia Mammaea and advisors like the historian, Cassius Dio. In the military field, he successfully checked the aggressive Sassanid Persians but some sources see his Persian campaign as a costly failure marked by mutiny and reverses that weakened the army. When Germanic and Sarmatian tribes crossed the Rhine and Danube frontiers in 234, Alexander took the field against them but when he attempted to negotiate to buy time, his soldiers perceived him as weak, assassinated him and replaced him with the soldier Maximinus Thrax. John McHugh reassesses this fascinating emperor in detail.

- p***c (128)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaPostives: Authentic trading book, very good to excellent condition as described, inexpensive, shipped quick enough. The negatives: No tracking for one. Also, the return label they sent me was blurry and small (I returned it because it wasn't the latest version). So instead of being able to drop it off at a convenient location I had to go to UPS and get it scanned just to make sure the label was scannable. I will also add that they have poor communication and slow response times. Would buy again.TRADER CONSTRUCTION KIT By Joel Rubano *Excellent Condition* (#335501678564)

Left package out in the rain, not in my mailbox which they could’ve! Or, on my porch, out of the rain, which they also could’ve. Picked the worst option. Left package out in the rain! (3) Seller saved the day by using a waterproof bubble wrap and cardboard protection around the item. Otherwise item would’ve been soaked by rain and ruined! Thank you Zuber!
