Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Rome, Vol. 5 I have not been able or willing to assume the attitude of perfect indifference as to the Spirit and character of individual and national morality. I have not aimed at painting in those neutral tints which, if they do not give the wrong colours, cannot give the right colours either. But I have tried to aspire to that which is the highest and the most difficult virtue of an historian, impartiality - an impartiality which does not shrink from pronouncing judgment, but which guides the judge, even in passing sentence, to a just discrimination between right and wrong. Yet I have been charged with a bias unfavourable to Rome. Surely it would be strange for a man to devote, years of patient study and severe labour to a subject, if he were not inspired with a certain degree of enthusiasm for it. The general tendency of writers has been to exalt. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
