Author Description

Excerpt from Selections From Herodotus and Thucydides: With Notes I have embodied in the notes references to the grammars of Professors Crosby, Hadley, and Goodwin. The two first are too widely appreciated to require mention here; the last, though the latest, is destined, I am sure, to be one of the most useful' that we have. It has been constantly at my elbow in all my work, and for brevity, clearness, and thoroughness is surpassed by no school grammar in use. I am not so sanguine as to think that this book will be found free from errors, and those who will call my atten tion to them will be gratefully remembered.
