Cicero: Letters to Atticus: Volume 4, Books 7.10-10

'Shackleton Bailey's translation is, one need hardly say, extremely accurate. It serves as a most valuable aid to the understanding of the text and as a complement to the commentary in many passages of particular difficulty … Shackleton Bailey's commentary may claim a place in the great tradition of commentaries on the Latin prose writers … It solves many problems, casts light on others which remain unsolved and removes a vast accumulation of traditional rubbish … The lucidity and economy of this commentary are admirable.' F. R. D. Goodyear, Gnomon
