About this ebook

One of history’s most monumental figures, the Roman politician and general Julius Caesar played a critical role in the events that led to the demise of the Roman Republic and the rise of the Roman Empire. A celebrated author of Latin prose, Caesar wrote detailed accounts of his military campaigns, composed in a vigorous, concise and unemotional style in the third person. These invaluable historical sources provide an engaging window into the world of the Roman army during the Republican.
