by LIVY [LIVIUS, Titus].
Uticae:: William Williams, 1821., 1821. Third edition. At head of title: Titi Livii Patavini. 12mo. 267 pp. [complete]. Original full calf, gilt spine bands, black leather gilt title label; rubbed, browned or a bit stained. Ownership signature of [Rev.] John G. [Grosvenor] Tarbell (1793-1882), Cambridge, Harvard College . . . To my Grand son John Branner Tarbell, March 15, 1879." Good. Note: the 1818 Uticae edition was printed in 272 pages – this issue, from 1821, is much rarer than the 1818 issue, with no copies showing on WorldCat or Copac. This copy contains all 55 queries in Book V, but does not have the "finis" that appeared in the 1818 printing (on p. 272) – otherwise the text follows the earlier issue. See: Madeleine B. Stern, William Williams, pioneer printer of Utica, New York, 1787-1850. Provenance: See: Harvard University Bulletin, 1887.
