1740 Julius Caesar WAR Commentaries Military Tactics Bellum Hirtius Oudendorp

“If you must break the law, do it to seize power: in all other cases observe it!”

– Julius Caesar

A rare collection of civil war histories and Julius Caesar war commentaries!

Julius Caesars war commentaries are some of the most prolific military writings! While not specifically known for his writing, Julius Caesar wrote this book which would become a mainstay in the Latin literature canon. It focuses on first-hand account of Julius Caesar in the Callic wars, but it was written as though from a third-person view.

This rare 1740 edition was published in Leiden and Rotterdam, and includes Aulus Hirtius Bellum Alexandrinum and his continuation of Caesars De Bello Gallico. All collected and edited by Frans van Oudendorp.
