Caesar - Which Bio to Read???

Julius Caesar by Philip Freeman or Caesar:  Life of a Colossus by Adrian Goldsworthy

So good reads says Freeman, but do I get the book or the Kindle version - Too many choices...

Went for Augustus by Anthony Everitt instead.  I had it at home already.

Cheers!

3/19 Update - Got sidetracked with Alexander:  Ambiguity of Greatness by Guy Rogers, but I did find this really neat website that has a book titled A History of the Ancient World Volume II by M. Rostovtzeff (Author) & JD Duff (translator)  ISBN 0-8196-2163-3 pub. 1933 - link below

Rostovtzeff/Duff also wrote a book called Rome ISBN 0-195-0045-5 pub in 1960
