A Companion to the Iliad by Malcolm M. Willcock.obit (1976, ISBN 0-226-89855-5)
Based on the translation by Richmond Lattimore.
What would be really useful would to have this book embedded in the Lattimore translation as notes.
The commentary goes Book by Book (Iliad is divided into 24 books) and somewhat line by line. If you are interested in understand the Iliad better this book provided a lot of information about ancient Greek culture.
Not sure when I obtained this book, probably within the last ten to fifteen years from Powells.
