Excerpt from The First Three Books of Xenophon's Anabasis: With Explanatory Notes, and References to Hadley's and Kuhner's Greek Grammars, and to Goodwin's Greek Moods and Tenses; A Copious Greek-English Vocabulary; And Kiepert's Map of the Route of the Ten Thousand The text of this edition is substantially that of Hertlein (2d ed. 1854, Weidmannsche Buchhandlung), with a very few variations adopted from L. Eindorf (2d ed. Oxford, The omission Of the breath: ings over pp, and the use Of small instead of capital letters at the beginning Of sentences in the midst Of paragraphs, is in conformity with the usage adopted in the greater part of the most critical editions Of Greek authors recently published in Europe. Whatever the Editor's personal preferences may have been on this point, he did not feel at liberty to depart from the usage Of nearly all the best editions of the Anabasis to which he has had access.
