Shines a light on the inner workings & machinations of political life in the late Roman republic. Goes in depth into Caesar's policies, tactics, and strategies as a political maneuverer and general as well as the deep struggle between the optimates who wish to preserve res publica and the populares who welcomed radical change

I have at least two copies of this from Von's. When I sold used-books at Amazon, this was very popular at AFO/APO addresses. No surprise at all why. We all should re-read this from time to time.
