Book excerpt: Excerpt from Imaginary Conversations, Vol. 2 of 6 Cesar. We have no writer who could keep up long together his severity and strength. I would follow him; but I shall be contented with my genius, if (thucydides in sight) I come many paces behind, and attain by study and attention the graceful and secure mediocrity of Xenophon. Lucullus. You will avoid, I think, Caesar, one of his peculiarities, - his tendency to superstition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
