Velleius Paterculus - Loeb Classical Library

Velleius Paterculus, soldier and senator, chronicles in concise fashion the story of Rome and Roman culture from the fall of Troy to the time of his work’s publication in AD 30 and provides much valuable information, especially about the reigns of Augustus and Tiberius (30 BC–AD 37), for which no other eyewitness historical depiction survives.
