Excerpt from Caesar''s Conquest of Gaul
The book in its present form may be regarded as final for the edition is large, and I do not expect that another will be demanded while I live, or that I should have time or inclination to make further alterations. Moreover, although minute details are constantly being added to our knowledge of prehistoric Gaul, and although the criticism of Caesar''s text has been continued with zeal and not wholly without profit, it is unlikely that we shall ever know much more about Caesar''s conquest, with which this book is mainly concerned, than we do now.
