About this Item

Hardback. Foxing to end inside covers. Old Grammar School stamp to inside cover. No date but previous owners name and date is 1909. Small mark to cloth. Green cloth with black lettering. The object of this edition of the 'Lays of Rome' is to give such explanation as shall make everything plain to the reader without distracting his attention from the poems themselves, to make elucidation easy, et not obtrusive or cumbersome. While the Appendices at the end of the several poems on Historical and Traditional, on Geographical, on Antiquarian, on Etymologicalm and other references, give precise and particular information on all points, the side notes are of such simplicity as to be intelligble to the youngest and least learned reader. The edition will, it is believed, be found specially serviceable for Students preparing for the Oxford and Cambridge Local Examinations, The Examination of the College of Preceptors, and similar Examinations. For this purpose the notes on each Lay are complete in themselves. ( We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
