The History of Nero Kindle Edition

3.6 3.6 out of 5 stars 9 ratings

The story of Nero is also the story of much of the Julio-Claudian dynasty. The bloody legacies of the previous emperors Caligula and Claudius are introduced before delving into Nero's own reign of intrigue, murder, and atrocities. The women of the family, including Nero's mother Agrippina, his wife Poppaea, and the empress Messalina, contribute their share of villainy to the tale. The death of Nero provides a pathetic testimony to the cowardice that often underlies tyranny.



"The History of Nero" is a thrilling biography written by American author Jacob Abbott in 1853 that offers a glimpse into the life of this spoiled prince who became a royal monster.

I have been researching Nero for an upcoming book in my Outcast Angels series and this biography gave me very useful insights -- more than enough for my needs
Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2020
This book is a quick synopsis of Nero, but also the Julio-Claudian Dynasty. The story of Nero is also the story of the bloody legacies of the previous emperors Caligula and Claudius also introduced in the book, before delving into Nero's own reign of intrigue, murder, and atrocities.
The women of the family, including Nero's mother Agrippina, his wife Poppaea, and the empress Messalina, contribute their share of villainy to the tale of Nero also. The death of Nero provides a pathetic testimony to the cowardice that often underlies tyranny and he goes down as one of Rome’s worst Emperors, maybe so but women of the family contributed to it in my history teacher opinion, knowing the History of Rome.
