Quote:There is a report that Drusus sent a letter to his brother Tiberius in which he urged they approach their stepfather to stand down and restore the old form of rule. The story is that Tiberius revealed it to Augustus, yet he did not react badly to it.I miss something. The closest I can get is Suetonius, Claudius 1.4, which supports the first part, that Drusus was a republican. But it does not contain to a letter revealed to Augustus. Which source have I overlooked?
