Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

The most powerful army of its time is faced with insurgent attacks and revolts on the borders of their lands.  A celebrated general proceeds to crush it and in the process makes a name for himself as a military commander.  This is the history of the Gallic Wars written by the Roman commander, Gaius Julius Caesar, in which he explains how and why he committed Rome to this battle.  This latest edition of an ancient classic in edited and annotated to explain the politics and armies of all combatants.

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.Much of Caesar's life is known from his own accounts of his military campaigns, and from other contemporary sources, mainly the letters and speeches of Cicero and the historical writings ofSallust. The later biographies of Caesar by Suetonius and Plutarch are also major sources. His “The Civil Wars” is one of two of his writings that have come down to us in modern times.
