IMPERIAL PURPLE - EDGAR SALTUS TASCHENBUCH

Imperial Purple by Edgar Saltus tackles the subject of Imperial Rome. The story is full of
horror  splendor  madness  horror  depravity  and destruction. Excerpt: When the murder was
done and the heralds shouted through the thick streets the passing of Caesar  it was the
passing of the republic they announced  the foundation of Imperial Rome. There was a hush  then
a riot which frightened a senate that frightened the world. Caesar was adored. A man who could
give millions away and sup on dry bread was apt to conquer  not provinces alone  but hearts.
Besides  he had begun well and his people had done their best. The House of Julia  to which he
belonged  descended  he declared  from Venus. The ancestry was less legendary than typical.
