"Caesar Against Rome is a narrative of the four-year Roman Civil War that began with Caesar's crossing of the Rubicon in 49 BCE. Focusing always on Caesar, the book sketches a panorama of Roman society - the first society to display the ambition, greed, and intrigue of modern politics - in the last century before Christ.".
"Supplemented by the writings of other ancient historians as well as the latest research, this book is based primarily on Caesar's own detailed Commentaries, written to explain and justify his military campaigns. Those interested in Roman history will find information about every aspect of life in the late Roman Republic, including political issues, class divisions, marriage customs, travel, food, and entertainment.
Military historians will discover details about every facet of Roman warfare from weaponry to personnel policy, tactics, operations, and logistics."--BOOK JACKET.
