Julius Caesar’s Gallic War chronicles his nine-year conquest of Gaul (modern France and Belgium) from 58 to 50 BCE. This edition presents Book VII (Chapters 63-90) with Latin text, same-page vocabulary, and explanatory commentary. (For chapters 1-28, see Avaricvm; for chapters 29-62 see Gergovia.) Within these pages Caesar recounts the great battle at the town of Alesia, where his legions lay siege to Vercingetorix and his coalition army, only to find themselves besieged by a host of Gallic reinforcements. The freedom and the future of Gaul hang in the balance.
