The first biography of theÂ final man to stand against Caesarâ€”whose principles and defiance became a rallying cry for future revolutions,He was Romeâ€™s bravest statesman, an aristocratic soldier who slept on the ground with his troops, a Stoic philosopher and staunch defender of the sacred Roman tradition, who inspired early Christianity: This is the story of Marcus Porcius Cato.,Catoâ€™s life is a gripping tale rich with resonances for our own turbulent politics. Cato grappled with homegrown terrorists, a public and private debt crisis, a yawning gap between rich and poor, and a fractious ruling class whose lives took on the dimensions of soap opera.,This isÂ the story of this uncompromising manâ€™s formation in a time of crisis andÂ his lifelong battle to save the Republic.
