`All over Italy men were conscripted, and weapons requisitioned;
money was exacted from towns, and taken from shrines; and all the
laws of god and man were overturned.' The Civil War is Caesar's
masterly account of the celebrated war between himself and his
great rival Pompey, from the crossing of the Rubicon in January 49
B.C. to Pompey's death and the start of the Alexandrian War in the
autumn of the following year. His unfinished account of the
continuing struggle with Pompey's heirs and followers is completed
by the three anonymous accounts of the Alexandrian, African, and
Spanish Wars, which bring the story down to within a year of
Caesar's assassination in March 44 B.C. This generously annotated
edition places the war in context and enables the reader to grasp
it both in detail and as a whole. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100
years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range
of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume
reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most
accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including
expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to
clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and
much more.
