“Those seeking answers to [Caesar’s] place in the world as hero or villain will not find the answer in these pages. Instead, they will find this book adds illumination toward that decision, which must be made by the reader, not the writers. It is precisely this rational impartiality that makes A Companion to Julius Caesar an aid to study, and a good one at that … Enlightening.” UNRV History (1 September 2015)
