From the Author:

"When so many manuals of Greek literature have already been written, the author of a new one may reasonably be asked to justify himself. My explanation is, that I do not find any book in English and at present in print which covers the whole field, is of moderate length yet not so short as to include the principal authors only, and takes account of the latest results of investigation. I have tried to meet those requirements in the present work." From the Author's Preface.
