[C. JULII CÆRIS / A. HIRTIUS PANSA]
C. Julius Caesar's Commentaries on the Gallic War, on the Civil War, and Supplements (with A. Hirtius on the Alexandrian, African, and Hispantic wars). Circa 1650.

Classic edition of Julius Caesar's Commentaries on the Gallic War (De Bello Gallico), followed by the other campaigns and the supplements written by A. Hirtius Pansa (notably De Bello Alexandrino, De Bello Africo, and De Bello Hispanico), as well as the precious Nomenclator Geographicus drafted after Abraham Ortelius.

The work is adorned with wood-engraved borders, historiated initials, and is accompanied by a detailed critical and geographic apparatus.

Ancient full vellum binding of the period, spine with visible cords. Wear from use, stains and scuffing inherent to the vellum's age, but the overall structure remains solid.
Interior well preserved, complete with the Latin texts and the reference geographic tables. Missing the title page.
