Caesar and Roman sites

As you probably have noticed by now, my site is one of writing, not graphics. For that I appologize. I chose to concentrate on content rather than good looks. So here I'll list some other sites that are excellently constructed (with graphics) and from which I was inspired to work so hard on my writings. So please view them and see their hard work.

Links for major Caesar sites

Julius Caesar: The Last Dictator

This site by Suzanne Cross has many great pictures and quotes from authors that give a great look at Caesar and the world he lived in. It is more than worth the time to look around. One of my favorites!

C. Julius Caesar - a biography in twelve parts

Part of Jona Lendering's phenomenal site on ancient history. Please don't just read on Caesar, check out the rest of it including his work on Alexander the Great. It is the best one ever.

Great Leaders of Rome

Michael Akinde's biography on Caesar was the first one I saw on the web and his work was a good part of my inspiration to write about Caesar. He has two great biographies, one of Caesar, and one of Scipio Africanus. Please take some time to read them both.
