(Note: Have not yet finished all sections of the book.) I am new to the study of Roman history and historiography. This is a good intro, but one would definitely need follow-up to really flush out the work of any single historian. (OK, it's an anthology.) The section on Caesar was thin, I felt, and does not really convey why he is regarded as a great Roman thinker. Still, Mellor's input as editor is very helpful, insightful, a good basic guide. But why on earth does this text cost $30?!! (as a paperback?!) What kind of racket is academic publishing!
