Caesar: De Bello Civili III by Julius Caesar

Book III of Caesar's "de Bello Civili" is arguably the most interesting he ever wrote, containing as it does the two major campaigns of Dyrrachium and of Pharsalus - Caesar's titanic struggle with his arch-rival Pompey. This edition, first published in 1941, remains an extremely serviceable introduction. It was designed with the comparative beginner in mind. An introduction contains the historical background; extensive annotation gives assistance with linguistic difficulties; and there is a full vocabulary. There are full chapter headings in English enabling the reader to follow the narrative and easily select sections of most interest.
E.C. Kennedy was at the time of the volume's preparation Classics Master at Malvern College.
