Caligula was born into the first ruling family of the Roman Empire, conventionally known as the Julio-Claudian dynasty. He is described as a noble and moderate emperor during the first six months of his rule. After this, the sources about the reign of Caligula focus upon his cruelty, sadism, extravagance, and sexual perversion, presenting him as an insane tyrant.

Caligula was assassinated because of a conspiracy by officers of the Praetorian Guard, senators, and courtiers. On the day of the assassination of Caligula, the Praetorians declared Caligula's uncle Claudius as the next Roman emperor.
Although the Julio-Claudian dynasty continued to rule the empire until the fall of his nephew Nero, Caligula's death marked the official end of the Julii Caesares in the male line.

This was a very good introductory book about Caligula. I don’t know an awful lot about Caligula so I found this book to be quite fascinating. It did try to contradict mainstream historical thought, but didn’t really go into detail, and I think that would have made it a bit more interesting.
