He came. He saw. He conquered. Julius Caesar was a force to be reckoned with as a savvy politician, an impressive orator, and a brave soldier. Born in Rome in 100 BC, he quickly climbed the ladder of Roman politics, making allies--and enemies--along the way. His victories in battle awarded him the support of the people, but flush from power, he named himself dictator for life. The good times, however, would not last much longer. On the Ides of March, Caesar was brutally assassinated by a group of senators determined to end his tyranny, bringing his reign to an end. Review: Books - My grandchildren enjoy all of these books so I make sure I get them often. But I don’t get my daughter gets for them. They are so interesting adults even enjoy them.

My grandchildren enjoy all of these books so I make sure I get them often. But I don’t get my daughter gets for them. They are so interesting adults even enjoy them. It’s good to get a little refresher course in history. Something should forget when you get older And this just helps you remember things..

Why was Marc Anthony totally left out of this book??
The book was good despite the big hole of any mention of Marc Anthony, which was a critical figure in Julius Caesar's army and life. Marc Anthony was Caesar's very important general. MArc Anthony even helped with the success of the Battle of Alesia / conquering Gaul and foe Vercingetorix. This battle mentioned in the book, yet no mention of Anthony!! The book was entertaining for my son and when he asked why no Marc I just told him I had NO idea... Marc in the book would have completed it more. Oh well. This book series usually has good books..a few we don't like but..but most are entertaining enough to add on a history subject or time period my son is studying.

Very informative while keeping 8yo's attention
I purchased this book to supplement our homeschool curriculum's world history coverage of Ancient Rome. This book was very informative yet was still able to keep our 8yo's interest.

Super Inspirational Story!
Although today, many of the actions Caesar took would be considered immoral, the fact that he was born poor and fought his way up the Roman ladder has inspired many people, from war generals, to tacticians and businesspeople. The author in this book does it in an excellent way, telling it in the form of story, similarly to the rags to riches archetype.

Adoro questa serie
Certamente sarò solo l'ultima di milioni di persone che usano e conoscono questi librini, ma devo dire che anche io adoro questa serie. leggerli ai miei figli o per preparare qualche gita su luoghi di interesse (Colosseo, Partenone...) o per preparare qualche ricerca è sempre una chiave vincente. Le informazioni (da buoni americani) vanno dritte all'osso e in più ci sono brevi approfondimenti anche su tematiche correlate di interesse (ad esempio la Viata quotidiana della civiltà romana…). Le vite dei personaggi storici presentano sempre un episodio particolare che attira la attenzione e la memoria dei bambini. lettura scorrevole e piacevole. Certo l'unico neo è che sono inglese. peccato.

My son learnt a few important things here.
My son learnt very important lessons from this book. (1) "I came, I saw, I conquered." (2) "also you, Brutus?" And, (3) Julius Caesar did not read Artemidorus' warning letter in a scroll. Before, my son never checks his emails or messages. But now, he does because it might be an assassination warning! Actually, emails to remind him his homework is due hahaha.
