Reviews

...an extremely successful book...Cartwright has provided a valuable resource for the Greekless reader of Thucydides. Every library, Classics department, History department, and Political Science department should own a copy as a reference...If at all possible students should have Cartwright in hand. Everyone who approaches Thucydides through Warner's translation should now not only have Cartwright at his side, he should be sure to read every word for it will immeasurably enhance his understanding and enjoyment of the text." —Bryn Mawr Classical Review

"...this commentary offers a wealth of background information as well as help in negotiating the nexus of intra-textual references in the History." —New England Classical Journal
