Adrian Goldsworthy has written seventeen non-fiction books on ancient history, published between 1996 and 2026. His work covers Rome from its early republic through its fall, with biographies of Caesar (2006), Augustus (2014), and Antony and Cleopatra (2010) alongside broader histories like The Punic Wars (2000), Pax Romana (2016), and Hadrian’s Wall (2018).
His earliest book, The Roman Army At War (1996), grew from his Oxford doctoral thesis. More recent works like Philip and Alexander (2020), Rome and Persia (2023), and Athens and Sparta (2026) extend his range into Greek and Persian history.
