WC Civil War

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. Caesar's Civil War is the masterly account of the war between Julius Caesar and his great rival Pompey, from the crossing of the Rubicon in January 49 v.Chr. to Pompey’s death and the start of the Alexandrian War in the autumn of the following year. The unfinished narrative of Caesar’s struggle with Pompey’s heirs and followers is completed by three anonymous accounts of the Alexandrian, African, and Spanish Wars, bringing the story up to within a year of Caesar’s assassination in March 44 v.Chr. This generously annotated edition places the war in context and helps the reader grasp it both in detail and as a whole. The edition is part of the Oxford World’s Classics series, known for accurate text, introductions by leading scholars, explanatory notes, and up-to-date bibliographies for further study.

The edition is Geannoteerd (annotated) and paperback, published by Oxford University Press. It presents the work in the widely respected Oxford World’s Classics format, with scholarly apparatus designed to aid understanding and context.
