In the \u003ci\u003eAnnals\u003c\/i\u003e, he writes about Augustus Caesar's death and observes the inner workings of the courts of the emperors Tiberius and Nero. In the \u003ci\u003eHistories\u003c\/i\u003e, he describes an empire in tumult, four emperors reigning in one year, each overthrown by the next. The Agricola, a biography of Tacitus's father-in-law, Julius Agricola--the most celebrated governor of Roman Britain--is the first detailed account of the island that would eventually rule over a quarter of the earth. And in the Germania, the famed warrior-barbarians of ancient Germany come richly to life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEveryman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket.
