The leather is shelf soiled and the edges chipped; from page 123 to pge 168, the pages are bumped along the outer edge as these are not flush with the other pages but well within the boards and within these pages there are also some very neat handwritten numbers along the edge; and finally there are three ownership signatures on the front end paper: the first I would suggest 18th, the second 1902 and the thrid 1968.

"Lucian of Samosata[a] (c. 125 - after 180 AD) was an Assyriansatirist and rhetorician who is best known for his characteristic tongue-in-cheek style, with which he frequently ridiculed superstition, religious practices, and belief in the paranormal. Although his native language was probably Syriac, all of his extant works are written entirely in Ancient Greek (mostly in the Atticized dialect popular during the Second Sophistic period).
