Riassunto

Excerpt from C. Iuli Caesaris Commentarii Rerum in Gallia Gestarum, Vol. 7: A. Hirti Commentarius VIII

The High Master of St. Paul's School, to whom I am grateful, has read nearly all my manuscript; and, after considering his suggestions, I wrote some additional notes, struck out one or two, and modified a few others; but he is not responsible for anything which this book contains.

I have thought it right to confine myself in the notes to explaining Caesar's text. Various historical comments and other remarks which may be helpful, but which would have been out of place in an edition of the Commentaries, are to be found in Part I of my Caesar's Conquest of Gaul (second edition) and of Ancient Britain.

Some readers may perhaps find opportunities of exploring the scenes of Caesar's more important Operations for when one finds oneself, say, at Martigny or upon the plateau of Alesia, the chapters in which Caesar describes what happened there become more vivid than even the best maps and plans can make them. I have given on pages 447 - 8 directions as to the best way of reaching the various places which I have in mind.
