Julius Caesar: An Audio Biography

Audiobook “Julius Caesar” — an engrossing biographical account of the life and achievements of one of the world history’s most outstanding commanders and statesmen. A dramatic story of Gaius Julius Caesar will unfold before you: from being saved from the dictatorship of Sulla and triumphs in Gaul to the creation of the first triumvirate, the crossing of the Rubicon, and the civil war against Pompey. The account describes in detail not only the military campaigns (including the defeat of the Helvetii, expeditions to Britain, and the Battle of Pharsalus), but also the political struggle in Rome, Caesar’s reforms, and a tragic end — the conspiracy of Brutus and the death of the dictator. After listening to the book, you will understand how a descendant of the Julian house influenced the course of history by laying the foundations of the system later called “Caesarism.”
