Author: Julius Caesar Translator: Kurt A. Raaflaub Editor: Kurt A. Raaflaub, Robert B. Strassler File under: Caesar ISBN: 9780307455444 Binding: paperback Section: History The Land mark Julius Caesar is the definitive edition of the five works that chronicle the mil­itary campaigns of Julius Caesar. Together, these five narratives present a comprehensive picture of military and political developments leading to the collapse of the Roman republic and the advent of the Roman Empire. Caesar’s clear and direct prose provides a riveting depiction of ancient warfare and, not incidentally, a persuasive portrait for the Roman people (and for us) of Caesar himself as a brilliant, moderate, and effec­tive leader — an image that was key to his final success.
