Thus Caesar worked and created as never did any
mortal before or after him; and as a worker and creator
he
still, after nearly two thousand years, lives in the
memory of
the nations, the first, and truly unique,
Imperator Caesar. |

Th. Mommsen, History of Rome -Book V - Ch. XI)
Here in the Library has a place of honour the bust of my most famous ancestor,
Caius Julius Caesar,
who was notably a man of culture.
Here you will find a short bibliography both of historical books and novels on Caesar.
Please feel free to browse and to give me advices on books on Caesar
which are not listed, but which might be interesting to read (in English, Italian or French)!
