Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"...All in all, this is a very worthwhile collection of fine essays; we should be grateful to Gwynn for assembling them. For those interested in a broad view of Jones' place in twentieth-century historiography, Garnsey and Rebenich's chapters, along with Cameron's chapter and Liebeschuetz's epilogue, will be the most valuable parts of the book; the other chapters of Section 2 will be useful for those with more specialized interests..."Gavin Kelly, University of EdinburghBryn Mawr Classical Review 2010.12.17 Read more...
