This was a great overall of the Herod family and the many upheavals that marked their reign. While they held power granted by the Roman government, Herod the Great did much to expand and solidify his rule. His sons and those that followed were not as capable, leaving huge vacuums of power, and inviting revolts.
Highly enjoyed this read, and the fabulous documentation within. It was nice to have reference points to go back to, and mark.
