I can strongly recommend the book 'Rubicon' by Tom Holland. It charts the tragic history of the Roman republic, and how democracy was gradually eaten away, until the fall into dictatorship and eventual social and economic decline became almost inevitable. The really interesting thing is that you could insert the word America nearly everywhere the word Rome appears, and it would still seem like history.
