re: #369 transient

OT, but can you recommend a translation of Xenophon’s Anabasis that is neither too stilted nor overly simplified? Just readable, and reasonably accurate?

I started to read it online; great story, but painful translation.

W.H.D. Rouse is generally considered a fine translator.

There is a Penguin edition, but I know nothing about the translator.

Dakyns seems to be read a lot, and is available on Kindle, but again I know nothing about his work.

If you can spare the $15, go with Rouse.
