Review

'A work of massive learning, which, however, never deluges the reader. The translation is accurate, brilliant, lucid. The clarity and economy of the commentary are amazing. Dr Shackleton Bailey merits our deepest admiration upon the completion of this monumental work.' Classical Bulletin

'In my opinion these letters reveal more clearly what Rome was like than anything in our literary tradition except the Aeneid. And here at last is an English version worthy of the great original.' Classical Philosophy
