1770rif. GD013564okBC2S6London: Printed for W. Strahan J. And F. Rivington R. Baldwin 1770. London: Printed for W. Strahan J. And F. Rivington R. Baldwin 1770 7th Edition 8vo. volume 1 of 4. Book bound in warn contemporary full calf leather with brown title label. Hinges cracking but holding lacking endpages. An Extraordinary 18th century association copy of Charles Rollin's foundational treatise on rhetoric and classical education. This specific title was a cornerstore text of the colonial American college curriculum. This volume boasts remarkable provenance linking it directly to the inner circle of the Early American Republic. Prominently signed at the top of the title page by Revolutionary War cavalry hero Governor of Virginia and father of Robert E. Lee Major General Henry "Light-Horse Harry" Lee 1756-1818. The signature signed Henry Lee matches known examples of Lee's autograph. Lee graduated from the College of New Jessey Princeton in 1773 a timeline that aligns perfectly with the usage of this 1770 text. Adding to the book's intrigue the upper right quadrant of the title page features a crisp hand-carved name stamp reading "A. Burr." in a well preserved reddish-brown ink. Aaron Burr 1756-1836 the 3rd U.S. Vice President graduated from Princeton in 1772 and was co-founder of the campus's American Whig Society. On the verso of the front board is a "Scholars' Library Bookplate Number 49 noting strict circulation rules "must be returned to the Librarian within a fortnight" heavily suggesting this volume served as an early collegiate or literary society textbook during the exact window Burr and Lee overlapped on campus. An interesting artifact of early American education and political history. . Signed. Seventh Edition. Hard Cover. Good/No Dust Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall. London: Printed for W. Strahan, J.

Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. Eight volumes complete. Now much forgotten by historians but not collectors! this history of the Ancient World was already in its 10th edition in 1804 of which this is a full set. A lovely very handsome set of books. Fully bound in leather with gilt. The morocco spine has five ridges six panels. The books have a polish and gentility from ownership and handling that raises the spirits. An ex-libris plate in the books indicate former ownership by the Lord Walsingham probably Thomas de Gray the 2nd Baron Walsingham. His father had been Attorney General under Lord North. All books are illustrated with maps that are in excellent trim condition. The boards are smooth elegant sound and firm. The spines are all worn from handling but are full of character benevolence. The boards also have light shelving scuffing. Inside the contents are tight serene and tidy. Together with the ex-libris plates on the inside front covers there are stamps indicating case numbers shelf numbers and book numbers. The pages have printers markings at the feet of the text. Throughout the printer's plates' impressions are visible. Volume 1 has an engraving of Rollins as its frontispiece. This is smart. There are two books in this volume: 'The ancient history of the Egyptians' and 'The History of the Carthaginians'; there is also a preface on the uses of 'profane history' especially in regard to religion. The pages are neat and tidy. Volume 2 T. Gillet printer: 'The history of the Carthaginians contd.' The History of the Assyrians' 'The foundation of the empire of the Persians and Medes .' plus articles 'The history of the origin and first settlement of the several states and governments of Greece' plus articles 'The history of the Persians and Grecians'. The frontispages have at their foot damp stain tide-marks. These do not detract from the texts. The folded maps are firm fascinating fine. There is foxing all about. The book is benign and pleasant. Volume 3 T. Gillet printer: 'The history of the Persians and Grecians contd.'. The contents have some foxing but are largely clean placid. The folded maps are tidy. Volume 4 G Woodfall printer: 'The history of Persians and Greeks contd.' The pages are tight and attractive. The maps are firm and full interest neat and tidy. Volume 5 G Woodfall printer: 'The history of Alexander' 'The history of Alexander's successors'. Again the pages and maps are fine and engaging. There is for example a wonderfully intricate engraving of 'A view of the City & Port of Alexandria & the Isle of Pharos' that brings contentment to the heart. There is some foxing but the contents are largely smart and venerable. Volume 6 G Woodfall printer: 'The history of Alexander's successors contd.' 'Sequel of the history of Alexander's successors'. The early pages have a map of 'The East' drawn by Mr D'Anville with three measurements Greek stades Roman mile Parseng or Leage of 3 Roman Mile. The detail is stunning the condition is uplifting. This applies to the consequent maps in the book. Some pages have tanning some have foxing but most are clean clear and contented. Volume 7: G. Woodfall printer: 'Sequel of the history of Alexander's successors contd.' Again some pages are foxed some tanned. Most are companionable and comfortable and clean. The maps are utterly engaging again drawn by the legendary D'Anville who was known for his partiality to accuracy and tidy. The early pages have some very light creasing to the bottom edges. These pages also have some light markings and surface storage impressions. Volume 8 G. Woodfall printer: 'The history of Syracuse' 'The history of Pontus'. A sure secure serene book. The pages are clean benign and certain. The maps are trim and tight. The full set is clubbable and exudes history and evokes timelessness passion care and ownership. fk.
