Widdows' powerful verse translation of Lucan's vast, unfinished epic of the Roman civil war. Told in a series of gripping, dramatic episodes, starting with the crossing of the Rubicon and ending with Caesar narrowly escaping death at the hands of the Egyptian army, the Civil War is both a historical account of the devastating civil war between Caesar and Pompey and a manifesto for freedom against tyranny. -- Lucan tells his story with energy, passion, and wit.
