MA, Assistant Master in Uppingham School; formerly Scholar of Jesus College, Cambridge University Members' (Latin) Prizeman. With Illustrations from Sketches by E. T. Compton, and Maps. The editor's object has been to make the book as attractive and interesting as possible to boys. With this aim numerous illustrations have been introduced from sketches made on the spots represented, and drawings of the fortifications, engines of war, and weapons used by the Romans and Gauls; and the Notes and Introduction, while not neglecting the necessary grammatical criticism, contain also information calculated to add to a picturesque realization of the story. Another rather unusual feature is a List of Idioms, with their equivalents, given primarily as a help in Latin Prose composition, and also with the object of accustoming the learner to look for the real English equivalent for the author's thought, rather than a mere construe of his words.
