Julius Caesar's Commentaries on the Gallic War and the Civil War are two of the most important works in Roman history. Written in the 1st century BC, they provide an invaluable insight into the life and times of the Roman Empire.
The Commentaries on the Gallic War detail Caesar's campaigns in the region of Gaul between the years 58 and 51 BC, and provide an unparalleled narrative of military strategy, tactics and diplomacy. They are also insightful on the customs and behavior of the Gauls, and offer a vivid account of battles, sieges and negotiations.
The Commentaries on the Civil War cover the period between 49 and 45 BC, and document the intense power struggle between Caesar and Pompey for control of the Roman Republic. They offer an absorbing and comprehensive account of the war, and provide a unique insight into the motivations, tactics and personalities of the two rivals.
Combined, Julius Caesar's Commentaries on the Gallic War and the Civil War constitute a vital source of information on the late Roman Republic and its transition to the Empire. They will be of immense value to anyone interested in Roman history, military history, or the history of the classical world. This edition is excerpted from the 1851 translation by W.A. MacDevitt (1834-1909).
Julius Caesar was one of the most influential figures in Roman history and a celebrated military leader. Born in 100 BC in Rome, he rose to power in the Roman Republic and had a hand in transforming it into the Roman Empire. His military campaigns in Gaul and Egypt led to the expansion of the Roman Republic and its eventual transition to the Roman Empire. Caesar also reformed the Roman calendar, creating the Julian calendar, which is still in use today. He was assassinated in 44 BC, but his legacy has endured throughout the centuries. Caesar is remembered as a brilliant general, a great orator, and a powerful politician. He remains an iconic figure in Roman history and is remembered for his many accomplishments. His legacy includes a lasting impact on the Roman Republic and the transition of the Republic to the Empire, as well as the reform of the calendar. Caesar's legacy continues to influence history and culture even today.
