    Herodotus

    As a person who has the Penguin paperback version from the 1980s, I wanted to see what the how the new translation differed with the addition of new materail. I wasn't disappointed. This "Tome" is far superior to any previous version and should be added to your personal collection if you are an ancient history buff.

    Charmingly unreliable Herodotus

    Herodotus seems to be typically described as unreliable as a historian (as well as being called the father of history). Some of his tales are indeed rather absurd, but that turns out to be exactly the charm of it. A bit of history and a bit of mythology, and tall tales of intrigue. WIsh I could tell which was which, but it's quite entertaining. The Landmark version is quite readable, full of maps & helpful footnotes and appendices.

    History is more fun with maps!

    Fantastic book, my kid had it as a textbook in school actually asked for his own copy to keep.
