Martin Hammond has taught at St Paul's School, Harrow School, and
Eton College, where he was Head of Classics from 1974 to 1980. He
was Headmaster of Tonbridge School from 1990 until his retirement
in 2005. He has translated Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, and Marcus
Aurelius' Meditations for Penguin, and is the translator of
Thucydides, The Peloponnesian War for Oxford World's Classics. John
Atkinson has taught at the universities
of Zimbabwe, South Africa in Pretoria, and Cape Town. His
publications include commentaries on Curtius Rufus's histories of
Alexander, including the introduction and commentary to accompany
John Yardley's translation of Book 10 for the
Clarendon Ancient History Series.
Martin Hammond's new translation of the Anabasis and Indica of
Arrian is another triumph for Oxford University Press' World's
Classics ... it forms a perfect, handy paperback of the works that
tell the modern world more about Alexander than any other source
material ... It's an exceedingly well-done volume.
*Open Letters Monthly*
Hammond has done Arrian - as he did Thucydides in the same series
in 2009 - proud a truly serviceable classroom edition at a very
reasonable price.
