Caesar By Goldsworthy


Viggen

Recommended Posts

I'm fairly new to the history of Rome and especially the life and times of Caesar but I am 3 quarters way through the book by Adrian Goldsworthy and I have to say I am hooked, have been right from the very first page. Granted it is heavy going but never dull or monatenous - moving along at a nice, steady pace.

 

All the main campaigns are touched upon, but don't expect too much detail except for basic coverage: other books, those that deal more specifically with this aspect of his life might be a more appropriate way to go for those wishing to delve deeper into this area. Having said that, it is a fairly extensive read on the life of this extraordinary man.

Just started reading Goldsworthy's book today. I'm sure we'll all have a good discussion on the book after a few days. Look forward to it.
