Caesar's Gallic war

Caesar autobiographically writes passionately of his military exploits in Gaul, the region embracing territories we know today as France, Germany, and Britain. This edition has an introduction to the life and career of Julius Caesar, followed by a brief history of Rome and the Gauls from 4th century B.C. to Caesar's consulship, when he conducted annual campaigns to subdue the Gallic threat once and for all. Also included: brief analysis of the Gallic War and of Caesar's prose style; commentary which leads the student through grammatical complexities and explains Caesar's rhetorical, geographical, and historical references, and illuminates aspects of Roman life ranging from military technology to astronomy; a comprehensive vocabulary; and a list of suggested readings.
