Book Reviews of The Landmark Herodotus: The Histories
Book Review: A wonderful piece of scholarship
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful book, not least because of the accompanying information, maps, appendices and photos of artifacts that all swell the readers understanding of the locations and context of this fantastic writer.
It is ideal for novices and experts alike, with very modern translation that has been painstakingly researched.
This is about as good as it gets. Its not very portable though!
