About this book

William Stearns Davis sets his 1900 novel in the last years of the Roman Republic, from 50 to 47 B.C. Chapters move from Praeneste to the Rubicon, then on to Cleopatra and the end of Pompeius Magnus, with a Vestal and a man named Agias met along the way. In the preface Davis says that Quo Vadis and Darkness and Dawn tell their stories from the Christian side, and that he wants to interpret the pagan side of the age while keeping to historical probability.
