" Dr. Liddell's merit is that, in the space of his two volumes,
he has given a lucid, welbtnarked, and comprehensive view of
the progress and revolutions of the Roman State and people.
There is great skill, as well as diligence, shown in the amount
of facts which are collected and compressed into the narrative;
and the story is told, not merely with full intelligence, but with
an earnestness and a strength of feeling which cannot be mis-
taken."—Guardian.
