Summary

C A ESA R ’S GA LLIC W AR

The one means of safety for both Gauls and Romans was that the Romans should govern all the country west of the Rhine and should hold the Germans at bay on the other side of that great river This was the result of Caesar’s conquest of Gaul; and this result is the great justification of his bloody warfare there. Ambitious motives; but his ambition was so great that it could never have been satisfied until he had brought the empire he ruled to the highest possible degree of excellence, and his genius was so great that he saw the needful measures and the means to carry them out The daggers of his assassins gave him too short a time to complete his work; but he did enough to prove hi,mself the greatest man in Roman history
