History of Julius Cæsar, Vol. 2 of 2
The second volume of Napoleon III's History of Julius Caesar, published in 1866, is devoted to the conquest of Gaul. After explaining the political causes of the war and describing the state of Gaul in Caesar's time, the emperor follows Caesar's Commentaries year by year: the campaigns against the Helvetii and Ariovistus, the war against the Belgae, the expeditions to Britain and across the Rhine, and the great revolt led by Vercingetorix up to the siege of Alesia. He drew on excavations and surveys he had commissioned in France to locate the battlefields, and this research gives the volume lasting value as a study of Caesar's campaigns and the geography of ancient Gaul.
