Together, they had brought vast swathes of territory under Roman rule. In 49 BC, they turned on each other and plunged Rome into civil war. Legion met legion against legion in a fierce battle for political domination of the vast Roman world. Based on original sources, Adrian Goldsworthy offers a gripping account of this desperate struggle for power. The armies were evenly matched, but in the end, Caesar's genius as a commander and his great luck brought him victory in 45 BC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ethe author:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdrian Goldsworthy\u003c\/strong\u003e studied ancient and modern history at St. John's College, Oxford, where he remained to obtain his doctorate in ancient history.
