A detailed, fully illustrated overview of Julius Caesar's Gallic Wars, one of the most important conflicts of the ancient world. Julius Caesar was one of the most ambitious and successful politicians of the late Roman Republic and his short but bloody conquest of the Celtic tribes led to the establishment of the Roman province of Gaul (modern France). Caesar's commentaries on his Gallic Wars provide us with the most detailed surviving eye-witness account of a campaign from antiquity. In this book, respected Roman military historian Kate Gilliver makes use of this account and other surviving evidence to consider the importance of the Gallic Wars in the context of the collapse of the Roman Republic and its slide toward civil war. Updated and revised for the new edition, with full-colour maps and new images throughout, this accessible introduction provides an important reference resource for the academic or student reader as well as those with a general interest in the ancient world.

This eBook edition of Caesar' Gallic War has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. The Commentaries on the Gallic War is Julius Caesar's firsthand account of the Gallic Wars, written as a third-person narrative. In it Caesar describes the battles and intrigues that took place in the nine years he spent fighting the Germanic peoples and Celtic peoples in Gaul that opposed Roman conquest. The Gallic Wars were a series of military campaigns waged by the Roman proconsul Julius Caesar against several Gallic tribes. Rome's war against the Gallic tribes lasted from 58 BC to 50 BC and culminated in the decisive Battle of Alesia in 52 BC, in which a complete Roman victory resulted in the expansion of the Roman Republic over the whole of Gaul (mainly present-day France and Belgium).

Athena Publications, Inc. provides a review of "Commentaries on the Gallic War (De Bello Gallico)," written by the Roman general and statesman Julius Caesar (100 B.C.-44 B.C.). The commentaries spanned seven volumes and included Caesar's personal record of the Gallic War (58-52 B.C.), which was fought between ancient Rome and Gaul. Caesar was proconsul during the Gallic Wars and wrote the commentaries in Latin. An eighth book was later added by the Roman soldier and writer Aulus Hirtius (c.90-43 B.C.) after Caesar's death, linking events of the Gallic War to those of the Roman Civil War (50-48 B.C.). A brief biographical sketch of Caesar, a summary of the Gallic War, a map of Gaul during the Gallic War, and background details on the Gauls are available.
