5.0 out of 5 stars what a book !
I gave this book 5 stars because the person who read it last gave it one - and they hadn't read it either but at least most of us would know that it was not the work of Pausanias himself because the author is not Pausanias himself but a woman and the title is clearly dealing with Pausanias .... so, stupid of Texas - why are you even bothering ????

it's got a lovely...

1.0 out of 5 stars Warning!
For those hoping to find a translation of Pausanias, this isn't it. It is a collection of essays about Pausanias.

I haven't read it yet, so my rating is based solely on my disappointment that it is not what I was expecting. I imagine I'll still enjoy the essays, but I was really hoping for the actual work itself.
