7 | “Without the conquests of Caesar there would have been no Roman Empire – and, so many of us believe, no continuing Freudian impulse for a European Union today. This terrific account lays bare the horror and cruelty of Caesar's campaigns – as well as the astonis***ng achievements of the Romans. Bursting with anecdotes and fizzing with unexpected information, |
8 | compels us to ask – how much does our continent owe to one man and his naked and cynical lust for glory.” – Boris Johnson, British Foreign Secretary. |
9 | "Caesar’s Footprints |
10 | is acompelling, richly researched account of a little understood chapter of European history, packedwith insightful parallels between the world of Caesar and our own." - Justin Marozzi, author of |
11 | The Way of Herodotus. |
12 | " |
13 | Beforenice gîtes in Provence, steak frîtes, Beaujolais nouveau, haute couture, General de Gaulle, Edith Piaf and Joan of Arc there was a kind of pre-France called Gaul, which the Romans destroyed and then remade in their own image. |
14 | Caesar’s Footprints |
15 | tells the extraordinary story of how the seeds of a new Gallo-Roman civilisation were sown, grew and flourished in the ashes of the old.Very few writers have the ability to write interestingly as well as rigorously about the Roman world. BijanOmrani– an extraordinarily talented scholar and writer – is one of them. Read this book.” - Robert Twigger, author of |

22 | “This is a wonderful evocation of how Rome civilised Gaul and through Gaul laid the foundations for European civilisation. Omrani’s golden pen produces prose that is a pleasure to read. He is a polymath who delights us with his learning – in literature, history and geography – but wears it lightly. His sense of time and place and true civilisation is extraordinary.” - Sir Sherard Cowper-Coles KCMG LVO, author of |
23 | Ever the Diplomat |
24 | “A real delight.Caesar’s Footprints***uberantly marches around France and Britain with the Roman legions, vividly bringing the formation of a shared European ident**y to life. It pulls no punches on the shocking violence and naked self-interest of Caesar’s northern wars, but is equally candid on the ways he laid the foundations of the medieval and modern West.Striding from Ma****ille and Arles to Autun and Deal in Kent, the book grippingly blends the unified world the Romans created with the landscapes and cultures two thousand years on. It is a bold vision, elegantly evocative, and an accomplished tribute to year zero of our shared modern European ident**y.” - Dominic Selwood, author of Knights of the Cloister and Daily Telegraph columnist. |
