Written in a clear and engaging style, The History of Julius Caesar is an essential read for anyone interested in Roman history or the life of one of its most famous leaders.The news of his passage spread rapidly to all Pompey's stations along the coast, and the ships began to gather, and the armies to march toward the point where Caesar had effected his landing. The conflict and struggle commenced. One of Pompey's admirals intercepted the fleet of galleys on their return, and seized and burned a large number of them, with all who were on board. This, of course, only renewed the determined desperation of the remainder. Caesar advanced along the coast with the troops which he had landed, driving Pompey's troops before him, and subduing town after town as he advanced.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
