Absolutely wonderful. I’ve been to many places and areas you are reading about. To walk roads , bridges and crossed some of the rivers. Most in Well done sir thank you for putting in the time and energy .
Haha sorry if the joke was too crude, I genuinely love listening to your recitations in both English and Latin. It really does sound as though it is the voice of Caesar himself.
Originally, I'm from Oklahoma, USA. I took a couple years of Latin in college, didn't do much with it for several years, and then came back to it maybe eight years ago.
Very impressed by your pronunciation. I'm a native Castellano speaker, and took several curses in Latin throughout primary and high school. Your accent is even quite natural too.
this is what I needed, the first two videos were a girl wirh a shaky voice reading. This is a man's man with a booming voice right here. "and merchants least frequently resort to them and import thise things which tend to feminate the mind." 🔥
I did all of the Gallic War books in Latin but have only gotten around to doing Book 1 in English. Since this video is getting a reasonable number of views, I'll probably do the other books in English as well.
@@ThePrinceSterling That would be awesome. You have a perfect voice for narration, there are other channels that have all the books in English, but I can't stand the narrators voice.
A Caesar would be a blessing nowadays. The modern NWO is ten times more corrupt and greedy than the Roman republic was when Caeser overthrew them. The problem is, that no politician could reach the level that Caeser reached without doing some dark stuff on camera - which would turn the masses against them, should they ever turn on the corrupt oligarchs.
By any chance are you of Italian ethnicity?If so that to me tells me our ancestors were on the opposite side in the Ancient era.

Do not forget this is a work of propaganda, a biased accounting of history which is largely unrefuted by Caesars contemporaries because his contemporaries either did not record the events or cited Caesars own commentaries on the Gallic wars themselves. Also, if any other records were kept, they're either undiscovered or lost to time... Caesar wrote the history he wanted you to read -this is a man with intent and ambition. When Caesar talks of numbers of soldiers, his enemies especially; take that with a very large spoonful of salt. He did face massive forces, the largest Gaul had ever raised -but there's more than a little embellishment most of the time.
The fact that this was written more than 2000 years ago and we can listen to this is mind blowing.
how many people may have given their own lives to save books such as this from the fires of ignorance and censorship....?

Here's an English audio version of Book 1, with Latin subtitles.
Intelligence Leveled Up

Well done sir thank you for putting in the time and energy .
Glad that Cesar wrote all this down.
He no doubt 'dictated' this too.
The work it must have taken to find and input all the accompanying images is appreciated. Excellent job, this is really great.
Its like 1 map they are zooming in and out of.!
Excellent! This is read in the third person, the way Caesar wrote it! Thanks for uploading this!
This shit was awesome.. Thank you! Caesar was Phenomenal.
It sounds like it's being read by Sideshow Bob. I love it.
Instant like commented and subscribed 👍
Best..
Better than audible!!!!
Thanks!
Amazing voice, it's like Ceasar himself it's reading this.
"all the things which effeminate the mind".
I love this quote
Thank god this book survived.

Where can i get the drawing at 17:27?

Thanks for the video. I didn't realize you had these videos in actual Latin. Question: where are you from and how did you learn Latin?
Originally, I'm from Oklahoma, USA. I took a couple years of Latin in college, didn't do much with it for several years, and then came back to it maybe eight years ago.
Very impressed by your pronunciation. I'm a native Castellano speaker, and took several curses in Latin throughout primary and high school. Your accent is even quite natural too.
My abilities have certainly improved with experience.
In the spanish says "Corn" instead of "grain or grano/s"

A man's man lol. Who are you? Sammy Gravano? 🐀
while I agree this 2 year old comment of mine is worded poorly, I don’t see how the rat comment fits here
This is great. Really really. It It so
Faced barbarians and The Courier. Caesar had an amazing life.
Does anybody know when Marcus Massala and Marcus Piso were consulus?
61 BC, I believe.
Thank you
Man it's unusual to hear you speak English haha
Still awesome though!

it’s sounds like the silmarilian
LOL, that was some record high speed censorship there ThePrinceSterling. Assuming it was you and not UA-cam.
I can't find the rest of the books, only book 1.

@@ThePrinceSterling If you hopefully decide to do it, will you do the books on the Civil War too?
@@ThePrinceSterling Last comment I promise, if you have a Patreon account, etc, I'll be more than happy to help support you on this. Just let me know.
Thanks for the offer, but that won't be necessary. I'll get around to them soon enough. The Civil War too.
I freakin love Caesar, we need him back to save us from Biden and NATO
Lmao
Wow. May I ask what country you come from?
Be careful what you wish for, my friend.

puts voices of the past to shame :)
