Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Ammianus Marcellinus, ca. 325-ca. 395 CE, a Greek of Antioch,
joined the army when still young and served under the governor
Ursicinus and the emperor of the East Constantius II, and later
under the emperor Julian, whom he admired and accompanied against
the Alamanni and the Persians. He subsequently settled in Rome,
where he wrote in Latin a history of the Roman empire in the period
96-378 CE, entitled "Rerum Gestarum Libri XXXI." Of these 31 books
only 14-31 (353-378 CE) survive, a remarkably accurate and
impartial record of his own times. Soldier though he was, he
includes economic and social affairs. He was broadminded towards
non-Romans and towards Christianity. We get from him clear
indications of causes of the fall of the Roman empire. His style
indicates that his prose was intended for recitation.
The Loeb Classical Library edition of Ammianus Marcellinus is in
three volumes.
