Customer Reviews
Dryden's Plutarch
In response to the review below:
"Simple pleasure" is worth something; Dryden's Plutarch, promoted in "yet another" publication, is worth even more.
? This translation by this talented poet is rendered "useless" by the absence of "reference numbers"? Plutarch is not about "indexing", but about morality, courage, and fate. This is an excellent book, by an excellent translator, and it is good to know that so many publishers are interested in keeping it alive.
