The Gallic Wars

What's a better way of reading about Rome's conquest of Gaul than reading from the man himself? Julius Caesar.

This, of course, is not an exercise in getting the facts of the event. Lots of propaganda from the author. Instead, it is an exercise in getting into the mind of one of the most famous historical figures.

I liked this book for what it was. An inaccurate but personal account of Julius Caesar and his troops during their time fighting, living, and conquering Gaul.

A preambulatory event of the civil war.
