This book helped me understand and study "Julius Caesar" more than most textbooks do, and certainly better than reading it over and over again. I had trouble with decifering the old English text sometimes, and this book clears up meanings while presenting a clear theme, involved analysis of characters, summary, and an explaination of each scene.. "Great Notes!" according to A Customer. I needed cliff notes for English as we were reading the play Julius Caesar. I looked around and finally found these. They are great! They are in modern version and they go along with most/lots of HS English books today. THANKS!
