Title: Detailed but dry history
Review: I ordered this book after reading "Beloved and God" which discusses Hadrian's relationship with Antinous...that book was great, but this one was very dry.If you simply want facts about Hadrian's reign, this book should work for you. But History need not be a dry subject, and this book renders a rather remarkable life just that.I'd keep looking if I were you.
