The last of the Livy, The remaining books:have been lost, It really is sad to think that we only have aboutbooks of Livy, They are really amazing. His prose is clear. His speeches are amazing. And while he isn't a perfect historian his dates sometimes conflict he did organize Roman history in an expansive and rational way.
I would have REALLY enjoyed reading about his take on the Fall of the Roman Republic and the rise of the Empire.
His last booksupposedly ends his history with the death of Druses,

I don't get too carried away with regrets, but it really does feel like discovering that Shakespeare wroteplays and we only haveextant.
Imagine anotherShakespeare plays!!!
