Recenzje

'This is a fine contribution to the 'Green and Yellow' series, and a valuable addition to the Anabasis' growing bibliography. It wholly succeeds in its ambition to demonstrate the important contribution that Xenophon made to Greek historiography and will be no doubt prove essential reading for students and scholars alike.' Jan Haywood, The Classical Review
