Description
Book SynopsisIberike was written in the second century AD as part of Appian’s
Roman History series, and deals with the Romans' wars in the Iberian peninsula from the third to the first centuries BC. This scholarly edition presents the Greek text with facing-page English translation and extensive notes and commentary.
Trade Review'Richardson has produced an edition which should indeed add impetus to the welcome upsurge of interest in this intriguing period and a writer who, as Richardson puts it, "has more to be said for him than has always been acknowledged". [It] throws a welcome light upon Appian's recurring themes and concerns as a historiographer.'
