Author Description

Excerpt from Æschines and Demosthenes: A New Translation This version is not incumbered with notes, nor prefaced with an elaborate introduction. Atten tion is simply called to the political condition of Greece, and to the principal circumstances of the trial, and a slight comparison of the two orations is made. The reader who desires more will find all needed information in the introduction to Ken nedy's translation of the Oration of Demosthenes, and in the editions of the Greek text of that oration of T. K. Arnold and Arthur Holmes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
