Description

Book Synopsis
In the third and final book about his campaigns in the Civil War, Caesar tells of his fight with Pompey in 48 B.C. which ended in the rout of the latter at Pharsalus. He then recounts the pursuit of Pompey to Egypt, at which point the whole work ends abruptly. Latin text with facing-page English translation, introduction and detailed commentary.

Trade Review
"A sound, independently constructed, judicious and readable text... a clear and idiomatic translation... authoritative and sensitive annotations... indispensable."
Classical Review
"This volume with its extensive and authoritative commentary of some 96 pages, seems to avoid any charge of trying to please too many people. It is a scholarly work with useful references and cross-references."
London Association of Classical Teachers
