Harless was an extremely prolific writer. His numerous editions of classical authors lack originality and critical judgement, but were valuable at the time because they summarized earlier scholarship for the benefit of the student. He is chiefly remembered for his work in connection with the great Bibliotheca Graeca of J.A. Fabricius, of which he published a new and revised edition - a task for which he was uniquely qualified. He also wrote much on the history and bibliography of Greek and Latin literature. FORN-MSB-0424-TUB0023-JC491
