The Last Assassin
Author: Peter Stothard
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0197523374
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Many men killed Julius Caesar. Only one man was determined to kill the killers. From the spring of 44 BC through one of the most dramatic and influential periods in history, Caesar's adopted son, Octavian, the future Emperor Augustus, exacted vengeance on the assassins of the Ides of March, not only on Brutus and Cassius, immortalized by Shakespeare, but all the others too, each with his own individual story. The last assassin left alive was one of the lesser-known: Cassius Parmensis was a poet and sailor who chose every side in the dying Republic's civil wars except the winning one, a playwright whose work was said to have been stolen and published by the man sent to kill him. Parmensis was in the back row of the plotters, many of them Caesar's friends, who killed for reasons of the highest political principles and lowest personal piques. For fourteen years he was the most successful at evading his hunters but has been barely a historical foot note--until now. The Last Assassin dazzlingly charts an epic turn of history through the eyes of an unheralded man. It is a history of a hunt that an emperor wanted to hide, of torture and terror, politics and poetry, of ideas and their consequences, a gripping story of fear, revenge, and survival.

The Assassin's Warning

Pages : 542
Book Description
Herschel Grynszpan was a teenage undocumented immigrant in Paris 1938. On the 7th of November he walked into the office of Ernst vom Rath, an attaché at the German Embassy, and… made history. The Nazis used the incident to whip up anti-Semitic sentiment, sparking Kristallnacht, that ultimately led to the Holocaust. Herschel’s story is a reminder of a world that once was, and a history that still lingers in the dark shadows of humanity—a boy's struggle for freedom and identity against an evil regime. From an early age, he was aware of the slow trickle of anti-Semitic laws being passed by the Nazis. He was kicked and spat on, cast aside at the back of the classroom because of who—and what—he was. He developed a burning desire to bring this to the world’s attention. Herschel’s story does not end there… A greater challenge awaited him, one that would prove his true heroism. His journey is one of the most mysterious stories of the Second World War.
