Title: Thorough, but turgid
Product review: An admirably thorough book greatly diminished in impact by an unbearably dull writing style. This is a book for academics rather laymen interested in Caesar. When one has recently read history written by someone such as AJP Taylor, it is impossible to read a book as plodding as Meier's 'Caesar'.
