Rome, the Greek World, and the East

“A splendid volume.” — Journal of the Study of the Old Testament

“It would be impossible not to recommend this book for historians: in addition to its subject-specific value, it is also an excellent guidebook.” — Arctos

“Meticulous attention to historical detail and penetrating insight into historical nuance.” — International Journal of the Classical Tradition

“Millar’s vast output . . . has established his reputation as the outstanding Roman historian of his generation.” — Journal of Roman Studies

“A work formidable in its undertaking, remarkable in its achievement. It is not a book easy to read, but it is one well worth the reading. [Millar’s] narrative is dense with detail, extremely learned. . . . The editors merit our thanks for their acumen and care in making this volume, and its companions, available to wide readership.” — Classical Outlook

“Millar is the most significant writer in English on the history of the Roman Empire in his generation. His grasp of the literary and epigraphic sources is phenomenal, and the easy clarity of his style makes his immense erudition delightful to read.” — John Richardson, University of Edinburgh
