The Times, quoted by Wilts County Mirror, Sept. 29th, 1905, says : — 

 " As a scholar he will be remembered as the translator, with his cousin, 

 the Rev. A. Church, of the whole of the Works of Tacitus. The trans- 

 lation of the " Histories" first appeared some forty years ago, and was 

 followed by the " Annals" and the three Minor Works. Besides these 

 the two collaborators issued a translation of Books XXI — XXIV. of Livy, 

 editions of the "Agricola" and " Germania," and certain select letters 

 of Pliny. Mr. Brodribb also collaborated with the late Sir Walter Besant 

 over a short History of Constantinople, and he was at one time a frequent 

 contributor of literary and classical articles to various reviews and 

 magazines ; but his share in the translation of Tacitus is undoubtedly 

 his principal work."
