Julius Caesar

Julius Caesar was one of the most consequential figures in world history — a Roman general, statesman, and author whose military conquests and political ambitions transformed the Roman Republic. Born in 100 BC, he rose to become dictator of Rome before his assassination in 44 BC. The Civil War is his own account of the conflict between himself and Pompey that determined the fate of Rome, written with the clarity and directness that characterise all of Caesar's prose. As both a primary historical source and a work of military literature, it remains essential reading and listening for students of ancient history. The audiobook brings Caesar's words to life for modern audiences, offering an extraordinary firsthand account of one of history's most pivotal conflicts.
