The subject book is a specific Victorian-era volume designed to bring classical Roman literature to the general public. It is an English overview, paraphrase, and translation of the epistles written by Pliny the Younger (Gaius Plinius Caecilius Secundus), a prominent lawyer, author, and magistrate of Ancient Rome who lived from roughly 61 to 113 AD. Instead of a dry, word-for-word translation, Church and Brodribb provided an accessible narrative that frames Pliny's life through his letters, providing a fascinating window into the Roman Empire.
