PREFACE

We are grateful to John Ramsey, who has offered much helpful advice in the course of our work on this edition, especially but not only on the “Asconian” speeches On Behalf of Cornelius and In a White Toga. We are likewise grateful to General Editor Jeffrey Henderson and Managing Editor Michael B. Sullivan, as well as the Loeb Foundation’s Executive Trustee Richard Thomas for their support and encouragement throughout. Our greatest debt, indicated in the dedication, is to our spouses for their unfailing support.
