Julius Cæsar - PDF book - Jacob Abbott
Excerpt
It is the object of this series of histories to present a clear, distinct, and connected narrative of the lives of those great personages who hare in various ages of the world made themselves celebrated as leaders among mankind, and, by the part they have taken in the public affairs of great nations, have exerted the widest influence on the history of the human race.
The end which the author has had in view is twofold: first, to communicate such information in respect to the subjects of his narratives as is important for the general reader to possess; and, secondly, to draw such moral lessons from the events described and the characters delineated as they may legitimately teach to the people of the present age.
