That's why I love reading lists. Otherwise I wouldn't have known you to be a Roman history buff. Try the Graves books I mentioned in the e-mail; I think you'd like them.
Von R--I first got interested in A & C for two reasons, at about the same time: I read Plutarch's life of Antony in a college ancient civ class (at least I think Plutarch wrote one) and I read Shakespeare's tragedy Antony and Cleopatra at about the same time. But I didn't know McCullough had written a version.
You are a veritable fountain of useful information.
