Thanks. If I wanted to get that in physical form, would I be able to find one by the same translator? Or are there other good translators for physical editions?

History of Rome podcast is pretty great if you don't mind not reading.

Yeah I don't mind not reading. Is it the one with Mike Duncan?

Caesar's memoirs of the Gaelic Campaigns.

Just recently enjoyed reading Scipio Africanus by B.H Liddell Hart. Would recommend if you're interested in Roman history

Thanks, I'll be sure to check it out.

Not a huge read either, 280 pages with worthwhile perspectives. Pivotal point in Romes history

Reading Rubicon The Triumph And Tragedy of the Roman Republic atm, it's very well written and keeps the reader engaged, it also gives a great understanding of not only the good things about the Republic but also goes into detail about the great amount of corruption involved that sewed the seeds for its eventual downfall.
