I've long got used to G.A.Williamson's version. But... hasn't Maier redited Eusebius to make it easier to read, by chopping out some of the verbiage? I wonder what it’s like.

The review makes me like it all the more. ;) Maier's approach is to let the readers decide for themselves if Eusebius is a trustworthy historian or if he presents the material "through the lens of Christian Imperialism". Much more reasonable than the postmodernist "hermeneutics of suspicion", in my humble opinion. Good news, Mike.
