Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Cornelius Nepos: Selected Lives
These selections from the Lives of Cornelius Nepos have been chosen with the idea of giving familiarity with some of the greater names and events in Greek and Roman history. The editor has found by experience that the study of Ancient History assumes a new and vivid interest the moment the pupil comes upon something which has formed the subject of his reading in Latin or Greek, where he can compare the more general statements of the English writer with some of the original facts out of which his history has been constructed.
