Description

This is the second volume of a three-volume historical and literary commentary on Thucydides, the great fifth-century BC Greek historian. Books IV-V. 24 contain the Pylos-Sphakteria narrative and Brasidas' operations in the north of Greece. All the Greek is translated and there is a full index. A valuable feature is the provision of a thematic introduction.
