In the third and final book which he wrote about his campaigns in
the Civil War, Caesar tells the story of his fight with Pompey in
48 B.C. which ended in the rout of the latter at Pharsalus, perhaps
Caesar's most notable military victory. The book ends with Caesar
pursuing Pompey to Egypt. Here began Caesar's celebrated affair
with Cleopatra. At this point the book, and the whole work, ends
abruptly.With this volume the author's edition and commentary on
Caesar's Civil War becomes the first complete commentary in English
for a hundred years and is considerably more detailed than
currently available annotated texts and translations in other
languages. The main emphasis of the commentary, as before, is
historical, but Caesar's literary technique is also scrutinised.
The Latin text is newly constituted with a brief apparatus
criticus. Latin text with facing-page translation, introduction and
commentary.
