Description

Julius Caesar was born into an important Roman family more than 2,000 years ago. He became self-sufficient and self-confident while still in his teens, getting married and having a daughter. A few years later, he was kidnapped by pirates. He demanded that they ask for a ransom much higher than they had originally planned. It was paid and he was released. He quickly returned and killed them. That was the start of his career as a politician, general, and eventually the most powerful man in Rome. He expanded the Roman Republic into new lands, creating one of the most important civilizations in world history. But he met a bloody end at the hand of his fellow citizens. Learn more about this extraordinary man and the time in which he lived in this exciting biography of one of history's greatest leaders.
