Caesar's Civil War : 49–44 BC, Paperback / softback Book

Caesar's Civil War : 49–44 BC Paperback / softback

Part of the Essential Histories series

Paperback / softback

Description

Fully illustrated with colour maps and images, this is an accessible introduction to Julius Caesar’s Civil War. Julius Caesar and Pompey the Great were two of the greatest generals Rome had ever produced.

Together they had brought vast stretches of territory under Roman dominion.

In 49 BC they turned against each other and plunged Rome into civil war.

In this book, Adrian Goldsworthy relates the gripping story of this desperate power struggle.

Drawing on original accounts of the war, he examines how legion was pitched against legion in a vicious battle for political domination of the vast Roman world.

The armies were evenly matched, but in the end, Caesar’s genius as a commander and his great good luck brought him victory in 45 BC.

Updated and revised for the new edition, with full-colour maps and 40 new images, this is a detailed introduction to one of the last conflicts in the Roman Republic before the establishment of the Roman Empire.
