Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Notes of the Gallic War (Lat. Commentarii de Bello Gallico) is a work by Gaius Julius Caesar in which in eight books he described his conquest of Gaul in 58-50 BC, as well as the two crossings of the Rhine and the landing in Britain in a precise, concise and energetic manner. The exact date of his writing is unknown. The last book after Caesar's death was completed by Aulus Hirtius, who prefaced it with his epistle to Balbo. Caesar narrates in the third person, mentioning in passing invaluable geographical and ethnographic details (e.g., the most detailed description of the Druids). The Latins called comments what we call notebooks today, that is, where notes are entered for memory. Only they were made in ancient Rome on waxed tablets, specially processed so that the wax hardened quickly and the tablet could be stored for a long time. According to the title, Caesar's book is a dry summary of the events of the war in Gaul (France, Belgium, England, which Caesar himself called inhospitable and of no value for conquest) in the middle of the first century BC and the actions of the author as a commander and ruler. This book also contains Notes on the Civil War (lat. Commentarii de Bello Civili) on the civil war in Rome 49-45 BC, which act as a continuation of the Notes on the Gallic War. It is assumed that the "Notes" were written in 47 BC. – between the wars in Alexandria and Spain – and were not completed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commentarii de Bello Gallico (English: Commentaries on The Gallic War) is Julius Caesar's firsthand account of the Gallic Wars, written as a third-person narrative. In it Caesar describes the battles and intrigues that took place in the nine years he spent fighting local armies in Gaul that opposed Roman domination. De Bello Civili (The Civil War), or Bellum Civile, is an account written by Julius Caesar of his war against Gnaeus Pompeius and the Senate. Shorter than its counterpart on the Gallic War, only three books long, and possibly unfinished, it covers the events of 49-48 BC, from shortly before Caesar's invasion of Italy to Pompey's defeat at the Battle of Pharsalus and flight to Egypt with Caesar in pursuit. It closes with Pompey assassinated, Caesar attempting to mediate rival claims to the Egyptian throne, and the beginning of the Alexandrian War. Gaius Julius Caesar (July 100 BC - 15 March 44 BC) was a Roman general and statesman and a distinguished writer of Latin prose. He played a critical role in the gradual transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commentaries on the Gallic War describes the conflicts between Rome and the region of Gaul in western Europe, as well as the Germanic peoples who lived to the east of the river Rhine, and Britain to the north, in the later years of the Roman republic. Despite being written in the 3rd person, the commentaries are the memoirs of Julius Caesar himself, and offer a unique insight into these events. Before the Gallic war began, the Romans had already conquered the region known as Provincia Nostra (literally: “our province”), which is now Languedoc and Provence in the south of France. Julius Caesar had been one of the two consuls elected in the year 59 BC. The consuls held the highest political office in the Roman republic, but their terms only lasted a year. When his consulship came to an end, Caesar retained power through the position of proconsul, governing Provincia Nostra and two other provinces. This provided Caesar with the necessary command to conduct the military campaigns in Gaul. Caesar’s victories in Gaul had huge repercussions on the future of Rome: the related work, Commentaries on the Civil War, documents the ensuing conflict between Caesar and Pompey that ultimately led to the end of the Roman republic and the beginning of the Roman empire.

Book excerpt: The enemy were overpowered and took to flight. The Romans pursued as far as their strength enabled them to run' Between 58 and 50 BC Julius Caesar conquered most of the area now covered by France, Belgium and Switzerland, and invaded Britain twice, and The Conquest of Gaul is his record of these campaigns. Caesar’s narrative offers insights into his military strategy and paints a fascinating picture of his encounters with the inhabitants of Gaul and Britain, as well as lively portraits of the rebel leader Vercingetorix and other Gallic chieftains. The Conquest of Gaulcan also be read as a piece of political propaganda, as Caesar sets down his version of events for the Roman public, knowing he faces civil war on his return to Rome. Revised and updated by Jane Gardner, S. A. Handford’s translation brings Caesar’s lucid and exciting account to life for modern readers. This volume includes a glossary of persons and places, maps, appendices and suggestions for further reading.
