Viollet-le-Duc's Entretiens sur l'Architecture was published in 1863/1872, and Bucknall's translation of this first volume was first printed by Sampson Low in 1877 (with Vol 2 in 1881). Despite the 1875 date often mis-attributed to the undated Ticknor edition, Ticknor and Company was only founded in 1885 upon the demise of Osgood & Co. Osgood had published in 1875 a translation by Henry Van Brunt. This US edition was apparently published in 1889. ; Ex-Library; 487 pages.
