Originally published in 1911 and part of the English Literature for Schools series, this book contains three books from the 1697 edition of John Dryden's translation of Virgil's Aeneid. Hamilton Thompson supplies an introduction on the history of the Aeneid and Dryden's translation of it, as well as critical notes on variations in the translation's text. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the history of Classical education.
