A comprehensive and scholarly book about the public economy of ancient Athens.

Excerpt from the Translator's Preface: "The present translation is substantially a reprint of that which was published in 1828; but I have carefully revised the whole; and moreover, the text has been throughout compared with the original by Dr. Leonhard Schmitz." Some of the changes in this edition include omission of some of the inscriptions relating to the Athenian public economy, a corrected transcript of an ancient stone inscription of a proposal or advertisement for a lease, and the inclusion of Boeckh's dissertation about the Silver Mines of Laurion, which had previously been published separately.

From the library of William St Clair, with his signature to each volume, dated 2009 in volume one in his distinctive handwriting.
