4.0 out of 5 stars This is not "A True Story", February 7, 2002
By 
PCA Federalist (Kirkland, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lucian: The Passing of Peregrinus. The Runaways. Toxaris or Friendship. The Dance. Lexiphanes. The Eunuch. Astrology. The Mistaken Critic. The ... Disowned. (Loeb Classical Library No. 302) (Hardcover)
Contrary to what another reviewer said, this volume does not contain Lucian's most famous work, "A True Story." For that, you will have to order Loeb Classical Library no. 162.

However, this is a good and useful volume for seeing what Lucian's style was like. In particular, "Toxaris, or Friendship" is fascinating, though one may or may not agree with the portrayals of friendship contained therein.

Actually, Lucian's True Story is in volume number 14, contrary to what I said in my review.
