At CBy, we're avid readers ourselves- so our ethos is to make good, honestly advertised books that we'd buy and read ourselves- not just to maximise our profits. That's why we have a 4 point checklist of guaranteed quality- and if you think this book doesn't meet one of them, or you're dissatisfied for any other reason, we'll give a refund via Amazon, no questions asked.
We guarantee that this book:
- Comes with size 11 text- some companies like to scrimp a bit and use small text. We know how hard it is to read books like that, so we use a standard size 11 serif font that's been designed for legibility throughout.
- Comes in a standard size that looks great on your bookshelf- sometimes, we accidentally buy books that have been sized like childrens' books to save money. That's why we're upfront- this particular book is sized 5.5" by 8.5."
- Comes with a beautifully designed glossy cover, unlike anything on the market. We hate books that look like they've come from a time capsule- so our team of designers have come up with a timeless design that's true to Julius Caesar's hertiage. We love it, but take a look at it yourself in the flesh- again, if you don't like it, simply return it, no questions asked.
- Comes with the complete original text from Shakespeare's First Folio (how many publishing companies reference that in their Amazon description!)- we're so confident of this that we've even added a reproduction of the title page. We hate books that miss things out- and we've carefully proofread Julius Caesar to make sure that's not the case.
We love this book, and we hope that you will too. Thanks for considering CBy's range of classics- and why not visit our website- it's www.cbypublishing.co.uk.
You all did love him once, --not without cause:
What cause withholds you, then, to mourn for him?--
O judgment, thou art fled to brutish beasts,
And men have lost their reason!--Bear with me;
My heart is in the coffin there with Cæsar,
And I must pause till it come back to me.
Set at the birth of the Roman Empire, William Shakespeare's The Tragedy of Julius Caesar is a gripping historical play full of drama and betrayal, exploring how principles and a murder with good intentions can slide into malice and civil war. Applauded as one of his best plays but also as one of his most morally ambiguous, the complexity of the protagonists have wowed many an audience, as they show how ambition can lead to death.
About the Author: William Shakespeare (26 April 1564 (baptised) - 23 April 1616) was an English poet, playwright, and actor, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet, and the "Bard of Avon." His extant works, including collaborations, consist of approximately 38 plays 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and a few other verses, some of uncertain authorship. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.
