The republic was dying and the best lawyer in Rome would not stop talking. Cicero exposed a conspiracy, saved the state, was exiled for it, backed the wrong men twice, and finally attacked Antony in public with a candour that got him killed. Strachan-Davidson works from the letters, where Cicero is vain, frightened and completely honest.
