In the tradition of the Landmark Thucydides, the Landmark Herodotus is now on bookshelves. I pre-ordered mine through Amazon and got it today. It is a lovely volume with tons of maps and a running sidebar timeline to help you keep track of where the narrative is going. This volume presents a new translation by Andrea Purvis. I am looking forward to reading it (perhaps over Christmas break). I am linking to it as well, for anyone who wants to get themselves a copy of one of the greatest history books ever written.
