Ares Publisher's, Chicago, 1993. Photomechanical reprint ed.1948. XV,263p. Original black gilt titled cloth. Initials stamp, date and personal library mark on free endpaper. 'This monographs is a model of historical method. The author starts with a careful analysis of the meagre sources, in which he not only assesses the value of the authors who deal with his subject and discusses the sources from which they drew their information, but also traces the channels whereby the scanty remnants which survive from them have come down to us (...). He next tackles the chronology of the war. (...) In the second section of the book he examines the strategic topography of the eastern frontier and argues that the line which Trajan established in the first stage of the campaign (...) was strategically sound. Trajan's motive was therefore, he argues in the third section, to establish a sound military frontier (...). It was only in the last few months of his life that Trajan's judgement went astray, and misled by his easy success (...).' (A.H.M. JONES in The Classical Review, 1949, pp.128-29).
