'Caesar's expendition against the Brittons was celebrated for its daring. He was the first to launch a fleet upon the Western Ocean and through the Atlantic Sea carried an army to wage war. The island was of incredible size and provided much matter of dispute to multitutes of writers that it's name and story had been fabricated since it was believed that never had existed and did not, therefore, exist; in his attempt to occupy it, he carried the Roman supremacy beyond the confines of the inhabited world. He crossed the channel twice from the Gaul, and in many battles damaged the enemy rather than enriching his army, because it was nothing worth to be taken from people who lived a wretched live in poverty.' From Plutarch's Lives. Caesar. 13:1-2.
