Wikipedia description:

The Bellum Jugurthinum, also known as De Bello Iugurthino, is a historical monograph by the Roman historian Sallust, published around 41 BCE. It is considered the most comprehensive historical source on the events of the Jugurthine War between the Roman Republic and Numidia, led by King Jugurtha. Similar to the earlier Bellum Catilinae, the Bellum Jugurthinum criticizes corruption in ancient Rome, describing how Jugurtha was able to repeatedly bribe Roman officials during the war and arguing that this was indicative of a broader moral decline in the late Roman Republic.
