Commentaries of Julius Caesar

This is a new edition of The Complete Commentaries of Julius Caesar.

Including The Commentaries on The War in Gaul and The Roman Civil War.

Julius Caesar 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.

Caesar's conquest of Gaul, completed by 51 BC, extended Rome's territory to the English Channel and the Rhine.

Caesar became the first Roman general to cross both when he built a bridge across the Rhine and conducted the first invasion of Britain.

Caesar marched on Rome with one legion from Gaul to Italy, crossing the Rubicon in 49 BC.

This sparked a civil war from which he emerged as the unrivaled leader of the Roman world.
