This includes his <CITE>Gallic Wars</CITE> and <CITE>Civil Wars</CITE>, plus three shorter works which may have been written by Aulus Hirtius (who is also credited with the 8th book of the <CITE>Gallic Wars</CITE>). Beyond its importance as a source document for military and Roman history, Caesar's clean prose style has long made his <CITE>Gallic Wars</CITE> the text of choice for second-year Latin. It is also of interest because of his first-hand observations of the Celtic tribes that he was waging war on. For instance, refer to <A href="http://www.sacred-texts.com/cla/jcsr/dbg6.htm">Book 6</A>, which contains <A href="http://www.sacred-texts.com/cla/jcsr/dbg6.htm#dbg_6_11">a long passage about Gaulish society</A>, <A href="http://www.sacred-texts.com/cla/jcsr/dbg6.htm#dbg_6_13">the Druids</A>, and his famous description of the original <A href="http://www.sacred-texts.com/cla/jcsr/dbg6.htm#dbg_6_16">burning man ritual</A>. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.sacred-texts.com/cla/jcsr/index.htm"><CENTER> <A href="#contents">Contents</A>    <A href="http://www.sacred-texts.com/cla/jcsr/dbg1.htm">Start Reading</A> </CENTER></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/7E66F229-3935-45BA-ACB8-A81A096EDD68/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
