About This Book

A sequence of personal letters written during the Republic's final crisis that records parliamentary disputes over military commands, rival legislative maneuvers, and the slide from political confrontation into civil war. The correspondence follows military movements and negotiations, Caesar's decisive crossing and subsequent campaigns, the defeat of the senatorial faction, and the scattering of its leaders. Interwoven with military and diplomatic report are intimate reflections on choice and fear, vacillation about allegiance, encounters with leading figures, civic appointments and resignations, and domestic troubles affecting the writer and his circle, combining eyewitness detail, political commentary, and private lament.
