`Occasionally a book appears that does fill the proverbial "gap in the scholarly literature." Trevett's study ... is such a work ... In six clearly written and lucidly argued chapters, Trevett not only establishes that Apollodorus was probably the author of these speeches but also uses them as the basis for an illuminating study of Apollodorus and his family during the first half of the fourth century ... An important contribution to Greek literary and social history that belongs in the library of all universities and colleges.'Choice
