"A great example of the art of propaganda. This translation is a bit problematic, with modern names substituted for Latin ones and some questionable turns of phrase every now and again. "

    " Caesar robs historians of the narrative for his Gallic campaigns with this amazing account of his various battles throughout Gaul and Britain. This is truly an unbelievable work. "

    " Read for Classics back when. Read parts in Latin for Classics, too, back when I could. Caesar was noted for his clear prose, but my goodness he's dry. The clearest example of history being written by the winners for their own purposes. "

About Julius Caesar

Julius Caesar was born on 13 July 100 BC. His family, the Julii, claimed descent from the ancient kings of Rome and from the goddess Venus. Caesar rapidly carved out an impressive political career, forging an alliance with Pompey and Crassus in 60 BC. The Civil War is Caesar’s attempt at an explanation of the war that changed the Roman world.
