About this Item

This First Printing Published in 1859 of "The History of Rome" by Dr. Goldsmith continues to be regarded as the best compendious popular work which has been written on this subject. So felicitous, indeed, is the style of this celebrated writer, and his sentiments are just and beautiful. His predictions are all eminently calculated to instruct and delight the reader. The present edition of the above work, has been thoroughly revised throughout, and numerous valuable notes added by the distinguished author of 'Cromwell.'
This book appears to be an ex-library copy, as there are "Bylaws for the Regulation of the Lyceum Hall Association's Library" in Mill River, Massachusetts, pasted inside the front cover. As a former library book of this age, "The History of Rome" is in great condition! There is some foxing, as is to be expected in a book which is over 150 years old (see pictures). The cover is completely intact and the book is structurally sound. No tears or missing pages are evident and the marbled cover linings are still clear and visible. This is a very interesting little book which seems to have quite a history attached to it!
