While he was not without fault--having committed numerous egregious transgressions--his life and achievements are undeniably impressive. He survived imperial turnover, lived through the great fire of Rome, presided over the empire as Vesuvius destroyed numerous cities and plague ravaged his homeland, and hosted Rome's vaunted 100-days of games.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This book draws on the scant historical sources, the archaeological record, and modern academic commentary to present the most comprehensive available account of Titus' life. Long neglected by historians, Titus' significant role in Roman history is presented here in the fullest detail. Hero or villain, there are few pivotal historical figures like Titus who straddled more momentous history and whose effects are still felt today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMarc Hyden\u003c\/b\u003e is the director of state government affairs at a Washington DC-based think tank and a weekly newspaper columnist.
