OCG offers a thorough and rigorous analysis of each book of the Iliad, synthesising previous research with the author's own insight and expertise. * Wayne Rimmer, New Classicists * This is a valuable work: the first complete commentary on the Iliad in a single, very handy volume, with, I believe, all the necessary bibliography, at least for works available in English. It should be of interest to all academic audiences, students and teachers, for a somewhat in-depth approach to the Homeric epic. the book demonstrates a very good understanding of current interpretations of the Homeric epic. * Françoise Létoublon, Litt&Arts * The book has been superbly edited for typographical and formatting errors. It will undoubtedly prove a valuable resource in educating students about the Iliad. * , Katharina EpsteinBryn Mawr Classical Review *
