Julius Caesar, my friend. News from the Gallic war (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

An imaginary assistant of Caesar recounts the eight years of the Gaulish campaign addressing to the less informed people, the common citizens, the young, the plebs. He uses a language suitable for them, not for the Senators who know in detail the events because they have examined with great care the reports sent by Julius during the conflict. In short, it is the remake of “The Bello Gallico”, written in an informal style, fast, effective, using spoken language words, as if Caesar’s extraordinary deeds in Gaul were told by an old friend at the bar next door. It is not the usual history book, it is the chronicle of the war in Gaul, enthralling, plain, without frills. For reading all at once.
