The History of Herodotus

by Translated by George Rawlinson

  • Used
  • good
  • Hardcover
Herodotus, "The father of history," needs no introduction. His work is at once the greatest source for our knowledge of the ancient world, the first of histories in time, and still the first in vivacity, charm, and all the superlative qualities of the story teller's art, a book of travel, a book of folk-lore, a reference book, a text book, the bible of all readers of ancient history, and a story book for young and old; in short, it is one of the wonder-books of our civilization and deserves a place in every library and home.
Dust jacket is in fair condition with tearing and markings of old age but remains to be intact and overall clean, first page has a very small pen written name from past owner on the top, all pages are clean with a browning tinge and some having a few small foxing spots.
Overall, the book remains to be in good condition and completely intact.
