Divided into seven books, The Jewish War opens with a summary of Jewish history from the capture of Jerusalem by the Seleucid ruler Antiochus IV Epiphanes in 168 BC to the first stages of the First Jewish-Roman War. The next five books detail the unfolding of the war, under Roman generals Vespasian and Titus, to the death of the last Sicarii.
The Jewish War is written by Josephus, a Roman-Jewish historian of the 1st century. In the wake of the suppression of the Jewish revolt, Josephus would have witnessed the marches of Titus's triumphant legions leading their Jewish captives, and carrying treasures from the despoiled Temple in Jerusalem. It was against this background that Josephus wrote his War, claiming to be countering anti-Judean accounts. The Jewish War has been described as the most influential non-biblical text of Western history.
This cloth-bound book includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket, and is limited to 100 copies.
