Been sick all week. But I managed to finish reading Mike Duncan’s Storm Before the Storm. It’s a fascinating look at the troubles of the end of the Roman Republic. The violent breakdown of the government process and rise of populist leaders and factionalism.

A good read. Highly recommended.

Anyone else been following Mike Duncan's "Revolutions" podcast? It's about to come to a conclusion but it's worth finding & listening to if you're into #history, especially political history. Mike also did a podcast called "The History of Rome." #RevolutionsPodcast #HistoryOfRome #MikeDuncan
