His family had opposed the patrician Senatorial oligarchy, and Caesar followed suit by supporting the 'popular' side in politics. His rapid advancement to the newly created perpetual dictatorship of Rome made him one of the most controversial figures in ancient history. The Civil War traces Caesar's swift rise to power, beginning with intransigence at Rome and taking us to the start of the Alexandrian War in the fall of 48 B.C. His terse and restrained style elegantly conceals the true propagandist aim of his writing; while in recounting history he seeks to present himself in the best possible perspective. He deliberately omits many of his setbacks and discreditable actions, and frequently points out examples of dishonorable behavior by his enemies. In his Commentaries, Caesar tells how he crossed the Rubicon with his cisalpine legions, entered Rome, subdued Spain; defeated Pompey at Pharsalus and installed Cleopatra on the throne of Egypt. Despite all his efforts to improve conditions for the Roman citizen and increase the honesty and efficiency of the government, his taste for autocractic rule made him too many bitter enemies. A conspiracy was hatched, and Caesar was assassinated in March 44 B.C., less than a year after he had assumed the dictatorship of Rome. This edition of The Civil War includes three accounts alledgedly written by his lieutenants: The Alexandrian War, The African War, and The Spanish War. Includes: Appendixes, Glossary of Persons and Places, Maps and Sketch Plans.…
