Description
The definitive modern account of Caesar's life and career.
Described by James Boswell as 'the greatest man of any age', Julius Caesar is one of the most perennially fascinating figures in history.
Politician and diplomat, writer and lover, and above all, a military genius, the legend of Caesar continues to spark discussion and debate. In 'Caesar', Christian Meier examines the story of the complex man within the context of the crisis of the Roman republic. He goes beyond the confines of biography to present a radical analysis of an entire political system in decline.
Written specifically for a general readership, this stimulating and authoritative book is of major historical importance, reminding us that the great individual still has an undeniably significant part to play in the shaping of history.
