Sallust's Jugurtha is a historical account of the Jugurthine War, a conflict that took place in the Roman Republic in the 2nd century BC. The book chronicles the rise of Jugurtha, the king of Numidia, and his eventual defeat by the Roman army led by Gaius Marius. Sallust provides a detailed account of the political and military events leading up to the war, including the corruption and greed of Roman politicians and the treachery of Jugurtha's own family members. The book also explores themes of ambition, power, and morality, as Sallust questions the morality of Rome's actions and the motives of its leaders. Overall, Sallust's Jugurtha is a fascinating look at a pivotal moment in Roman history, as well as a reflection on the nature of power and the consequences of unchecked ambition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
