Excerpt from De Bello Gallico, Vol. 6: Liber Sextus; Edited With Introduction and Notes
The present edition of Caesar's Sixth Book is designed to meet the requirements of Candidates for the Junior Local Examinations. The Intro duction has been limited to What seems likely to serve this purpose. The Notes Will be found throughout to be explanatory rather than critical. In many cases simple explanations of constructions have been added to the note for general reference. My experience is that boys readily understand these explanations at the time they are given, especially if they are placed on the blackboard; but, unless they also have them ready to hand, the outline quickly loses its sharpness.
I have added some exercises on the text, and also a short list of military phrases found in Book VI, which it is hoped will prove useful.
