Description

'It is splendid to have Shackleton Bailey Ad fam., sooner than might have been expected, to set beside Shackleton Bailey Ad Att. The format is the same - chronological arrangement of the letters, good paper, handsome binding and printing (.), condordances and indices - apart from the absence of a translation; and this, though regretfully, we can forgo (.). In fact, the whole text, commentary, and indices have been got into two, admittedly fat and expensive, volumes (.). Professor Shackleton Bailey is a safe guide on legal and administrative technicalities, but prosography and insight into individual character have always been fields in which he excelled. So here.' (ELIZABETH RAWSON in The Classical Review (New Series), 1979, pp.49-50).
