'Dr. S.J. Harrison ... has given us the most ambitious of this "series", and he is to be congratulated for the great detail of lexicographical, historical, geographical, ethnographical, and other material here presented. This is a book that all Virgilian scholars will need to own and consult, on any of these points, and also for what it can teach them about general Latin usage.' Vergilius, Volume 38
'... it is both comprehensive and detailed, offering comments on historical matters, the literary background, poetic style and diction, and textual problems; it is truly impressive in its learning, thoughtfulness, and occasional originality in particular details.
