เกี่ยวกับหนังสือเสียงเล่มนี้
De Bello Gallico and Other Commentaries (The War in Gaul and The Civil War)' is a collection of war writings by Julius Caesar.
Often simply called Caesar, Caius Julius Caesar (100 BC - 44 BC) is the most well-known Roman. He rose quickly through the cursus honorum as a young man, and eventually conquered Gaul as general following his co-consulship with Bibulus.
His Gallic campaign is arguably his best war effort, and he memorialized his campaign in "De Bello Gallico." Caesar led to the end of the Roman Republic and the start of the Roman Empire. In his commentaries on the Civil War, Caesar writes about the great war that plagued Rome between Caesar and Pompey. Caesar became Roman Dictator, but was murdered by Roman Senators on the Ides of March (March 15) 44 BC.
W.A. MacDevitt's rich translation paints the perfect picture while Thomas De Quincey's Introduction showcases the political and social scene at the time.
