Summary:

Josephus is the first part of Feuchtwanger's trilogy based on the life of the Jewish historian. This book covers the period from the time of Josephus' return to Rome in 64 AD to the fall of Jerusalem and his journey to Rome to begin a writing career. Josephus has been called the classic example of a "Mr. Facing-both-ways", a Jew who wished to be friends with the enemies of his people, the Romans; a man in all honesty trying to make the best of two worlds.
