The Histories of Polybius : Translated from the Text of F. Hultsch

Omtale

Volume 1 of Shuckburgh's superb 1889 translation of Polybius' Histories contains Books 1 to 5, part of Book 6, and fragments of Books 7 to 9. Covering Greek and Egyptian society, the Punic Wars, Roman society and historical method, it remains a fascinating source on the second and third centuries BCE.
