It has been the object of the compiler of the present manual to supply this deficiency by introducing into it such details as are likely to be useful (indeed much of which is absolutely necessary to the classical student) in so small a space as to admit of its being thoroughly mastered and retained.\" - Preface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJames Skerrett Shore Baird, educated at Trinity College, Dublin, assistant Classical Master at King's School, Gloucester.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Haaswurth Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45234739937346,"sku":"ABE12444","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0191\/6066\/2082\/files\/DSC08546BackgroundRemoved.png?v=1789737027","url":"https:\/\/www.haaswurth.com\/products\/the-classical-manual-ancient-geography-greek-and-roman-mythology-antiquities","provider":"Haaswurth Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
