you're on a higher limb than I ,,,,,except for politics and finances lolI did read it probably 40 years ago America under this AH is going down
If you plowed through 6 volumes of Gibbon then you will have read Suetonius? A much more pleasant read. I reread The 12 Caesars at least once a year.
So at the risk of engaging a sufferer of TDS in civil conversation...give me a point of similarity between something in Gibbon's (or Sutonius') writing and anything today.
