The text of the present edition is, with a few exceptions, that of the
Oxford edition prepared by me for the Delegates of the Clarendon Press,
whom I hereby thank for their permission to use it.

The English translations of Apollonius are as follows:--

By E.B. Greene, by F. Fawkes, both 1780; by W. Preston, 1803. None of
these are of value. There is a prose translation by E.P. Coleridge in
the Bohn Series. The most recent and also the best is a verse
translation by Mr. A.S. Way, 1901, in "The Temple Classics."
