Thomas Rice Edward Holmes (24 May 1855 – 4 August 1933), who usually published as T. Rice Holmes or T.R.E. Holmes, was a scholar best known for his extensive and "fundamental"[1] work on Julius Caesar and his Gallic War commentaries. Holmes was born at Moycashel (today Castletown-Geoghegan), Ireland. He was the fifth son of Robert Holmes, a landed proprietor and a descendant of John Arbuthnot, a friend of Alexander Pope and Jonathan Swift. Holmes was educated at Merchant Taylors' School[2] and Christ Church, Oxford. He was assistant master at Lincoln Grammar School (1878–80), Blackheath Proprietary School (1880–85), and St. Paul's School (beginning in 1886). In 1888, he married Isabel Isaacs, the daughter of Lionel Isaacs of Mandeville, Jamaica. They lived at 11 Douro Place, Kensington. In addition to his books, Holmes published a number of articles in the English Historical Review, Classical Quarterly, and other journals. He died at age 78 in Roehampton, London. Books
