Gaul in the years of Caesar's wars is the setting of this 1923 novel by Naomi Mitchison, her first. It begins in the autumn of 58 B.C. with Meromic, a young man of the seafaring Veneti, after the Gallic council has called in Julius Caesar against the German king Ariovistus. Its thirteen chapters are dated from 58 B.C. to 46 B.C., through the fighting of 52 B.C. and the defeat of Vercingetorix, whose gold coin appears on the title page. The book is dedicated to her brother, J. B. S. Haldane.
