Title: The Jugurthine War (Bellum Iugurthinum)/The Conspiracy of Catiline (Bellum Catilinae)
Author: Gaius Sallustius Crispus (Sallust)/ Translated and with an Introduction by S. A. Hanford
Number of Pages: (optional) 233
Genre: non-fiction, history
Book Number/Goal: 24 of 100 to be read in a year
My rating: 3/5
Review: I started reading history back in grade school because I'd read a couple of historical novels and wanted to know what really happened. These days, I still read it for that reason, but also because I find it fascinating in and of itself. Oh, and I often read it for research purposes, usually connected with the never ending Blood Histories vampire saga.
( an absurdly long review of a very short book )
