Excerpt from Roman Africa: Archaeological Walks in Algeria and Tunis
It is with great pleasure that I offer to the reading public the authorised English translation of Gaston Boissier's L'Afrique Romaine.
Monsieur Boissier needs no introduction to an English or American public. Those who have read his previous books are already familiar with the simplicity and clearness of the style, the picturesque descriptions of places and the vivid presentation of events which characterise Boissier's work, and have realised also that this work is based on a foundation of thorough scholarly knowledge.

I have followed for the spelling of the proper names the forms given by Heinrich Kiepert, Ph. D., in his Manual of Ancient Geography.
