However the final pages absolutely ruined this book as the two mega-democrat authors rip Cato, George Washington, America, principles of liberty and republican government, and make clear that the purpose of this book is to make a mockery of these values and the historical figures. What a shame, that these two hacks could not resist injecting a double dose of their communist venom into what was an otherwise decent historical read. Sad. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ On the tension between virtue and politics *by M***I on Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2016* Cato the Younger was a pivotal figure in the history of ancient Rome, as well as a Stoic philosopher who is still looked upon as a role model by many. This biography is well written and fairly balanced. The authors refrain from indulging into the usual stereotypes about Stoicism, and get most of the major points about the philosophy right (unlike the author of a recent biography of Marcus Aurelius, for instance). They also provide a critical yet sympathetic portrait of Cato himself, and discuss his influence through the centuries up to modern times. That latter part comes across as a bit incomplete and aphazard, with some noticeable holes throughout here and there, but it still is a welcome addition to the book. Cato himself was a man of high principles, who rarely failed to uphold them. And yet perhaps because of this he ultimately did not succeed in his quest to save the Roman Republic from the tyranny of Julius Caesar (and eventually from its devolution into empire). He just couldn't bring himself to compromise with potential politically allies, and when he did, it was too little too late. One wonders if modern politicians and citizens of 21st century democracies couldn't learn a thing or two from the successes and failures of the ancient Romans, and of Cato in particular. I have published a six-part commentary on this book, entitled The Cato Chronicles, at my blog, how to be a stoic dot org. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent historical account & context *by S***T on Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2021* I got the idea to read this book after reading a chapter about Cato in "The Lives of The Stoics" by Ryan Holiday. I was not disappointed. This book is a thorough analysis of Cato's life, the politics of Rome, and the historical context of the time. The author painted an excellent picture in recreating the circumstances that led to Cato's rise in popularity and his eventual death. I now understand why Cato was so highly admired by people centuries later, including the founders of the United States. Although it took me a while to finish reading it due to the depth of the content, I highly recommend this book. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/45723288-romes-last-citizen-the-life-and-legacy-of-cato-mortal](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/45723288-romes-last-citizen-the-life-and-legacy-of-cato-mortal) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
