Commentarii de Bello Gallico, Libri V-VIII by Julius Caesar
"Commentarii de Bello Gallico, Libri V-VIII" by Julius Caesar is a firsthand military account written between 58-50 BC. Caesar narrates nine years of campaigns against Celtic and Germanic peoples resisting Roman conquest in Gaul.

Caesar uses these commentaries to defend his actions and win popular support against political
enemies in Rome who threatened prosecution upon his return. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
