This book studies both what Appian had to say and how he said it; and engages in a dialogue about the value of Appian's text as a source of history, the relationship between that history and his own times, and the impact on his narrative of the author's own opinions.
No serious reader of Appian, and in fact no serious student of the
Roman republic, will be in a position to overlook this volume.
*Classics for All*
