I am wondering how I can purchase a copy, from here in the USA. A website link? Even if not available yet in English, I have plenty of friends who read and speak French. Besides, pictures are worth a thousand words, aren't they(?).

I remember fondly my copy of Classics Illustrated, Caesar's Gallic Wars and how my very anti-comic book dad was NOT happy I had bought a copy (1966-I think). It got read/looked at so much that it fell apart years ago. Your artwork is so much better than that one was.

C'est vraiment super! Un bd sur la GdG avec une reconstitution d'époque scrupuleuse … et tes dessins sont vraiment géniaux !

Looks very, very good!
I want to buy this the next time I'm in Paris… How many volumes do you have in mind? VIII ;-) ?
