The epic life story of the Roman statesman, military commander, and
dictator, from the bestselling author of Thermopylae. Born to Roman
aristocracy in 100 BC, Julius Caesar became one of the most
powerful men in history. He was a military genius, a fierce
politician, and a brilliant writer and orator. When he formed an
alliance with Pompey and Crassus, the triumvirate of officials took
control of the Roman Republic. But Caesar's quest for power was
only beginning. As proconsul, he went to war against the Gallic
tribes of the north, extending Roman territory into Gaul, Belgium,
Germany, and Britain. When the Gallic Wars ended, the Roman senate
called on Caesar to return to private life. But rather than
relinquish his title, Caesar led his legion into a civil war that
would spell the end of the Roman Republic and the beginning of the
Roman Empire. In this thrilling and thoroughly researched
biography, Ernle Bradford cuts through the legends in order to
present a truthful and nuanced portrait of a man whose pursuit of
power knew no bounds.
