Roman Farm. Management : the Treatises of Cato and Varro.

Done into English, with notes of modern instances, by A Virginia Farmer. (Macmillan and Co. 8s. 6d. net.)—The anonymous translator has produced a version of these famous treatises which, without pretending to precise scholarship, is written in unusually fluent and readable English. The notes and the introduction which he has added to the text give much practical information, and display at the same time the wide reading of their author.
