1776réf. 68352London: Printed for W. Strahan; and T. Cadell 1776. London: Printed for A. Strahan; and T. Cadell 1776-1788. First edition. Six volumes quarto 10 3/4 x 8 1/2 inches; 270 x 220 mm. Engraved portrait of Gibbon by Hall after Reynolds not usually found bound in volume II. With three engraved folding maps bound in volume II one of them normally found in volume III. With all the half titles and the errata leaves in Volumes I II III and VI Volume VI errata covers volumes IV V and VI. With twelve pages of Contents for Volume I at the beginning of Volume II. Volume I has more than half of the errata uncorrected which would make it an intermediate state. According to Sterling " Vol. I only was published in 1776. It was originally planned to print 500 copies of this first edition but after 26 sheets were completed it was decided to increase the number to 1000. The type of the earlier sheets had by that time been distributed so when they were set up again the opportunity was taken to correct the numerous errata and to print the text of the cancel leaves which for some unknown reason had been substituted for the original leaves. Vols. II and III were were published together in 1781." In Volume III p. 177 is correctly numbered and "Honorious" is left uncorrected on p. 179 line 18. G1 and Ll1 cancels in volume 2 signed G and Ll H3 and L2 cancels in volume 4 the latter signed L2. The engraved portrait of Gibbon was issued separately in 1780. Contemporary tree calf all volumes attractively and uniformly rebacked. Gilt spines with gilt tool in compartments morocco spine labels lettered in gilt and small morocco lozenge with volume numbers. All edges yellow. Extremities slightly rubbed. Some light intermittent foxing but generally very clean. Small bookplate on front pastedown of each volume. With a repaired closed tear to the last leaf of volume II. Overall a very good set. A "masterpiece of historical penetration and literary style" Gibbon's Decline and Fall brought to the subject a width of vision and a critical mastery of the available sources which have not been equaled to this day. "This masterpiece of historical penetration and literary style has remained one of the ageless historical works which like the writings of Macaulay and Mommsen maintain their hold upon the layman and continue to stimulate the scholar although they have been superseded in many if not most details by subsequent advance of research and changes in the climate of opinion. Whereas other eighteenth-century writers in this field such as Voltaire are still quoted with respect the Decline and Fall is the only historical narrative prior to Macaulay which continues to be reprinted and actually read" Printing and the Mind of Man. Although superseded in many respects by two centuries of continuous research this great work is still read both for pleasure and for profit and has achieved an eminence denied most historical compilations of its kind.

Cadell 1776 Vol. 1 1781 Vols. 2-3 1788 Vols. 4-6 Edition: First editions of all volumes except for the first volume which is a second edition June 1776 released within months of the first February 1776. The first volume went through three editions before the second volume was released. Norton 1940 Condition and Description: Large quarto bound in late-19th or early 20th-century calf gilt and blind rolls to the boards six spine compartments stamped with gilt floral ornaments dark red morocco spine labels edges dyed yellow marbled endpapers. All volumes retain the half-title leaves Vol. 1 contains the frontispiece engraving and all three maps are present two in Vol. 2 and one in Vol. 3 as called for. Secure hinges and binding. Rubbing scuffs handling marks and some areas of discoloration to the boards and labels. Upper-left corner of the rear board of Vol. 1 has a patch of loss to the upper layer of the leather. Some tips bumped and exposed. Frontispiece portrait of Vol. 1 with moderate foxing to the verso; that portrait has also offset onto the title leaf as usual. Contents largely clean across volumes with occasional instances of minor or moderate foxing. Unobtrusive bookseller ticket of Henry Sotheran to the verso of each front free endpaper near the gutter. Old bookseller note in pencil to the verso of the rear free endpaper of Vol. 1 recording the edition status of the volumes and the price at the time of £65 given the price this would have been written many decades ago. A similar note in pencil appears at the end of Vol. 2. The bookbinder also records a few small notes in pencil a common practice to ensure correct binding sequences. Though easily erasable we believe the pencil notes are worth keeping as part of the set's history. Overall a handsome set with excellent shelf presence. - The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire is widely regarded as a landmark in the development of modern historical writing because it combined a large-scale narrative with systematic evaluation of historical evidence. The work draws extensively on ancient primary sources and documents them in detailed footnotes comparing accounts and judging their reliability rather than simply repeating earlier historians. Gibbon explained the transformation and collapse of the Roman world through multiple interacting causes including political instability military pressures institutional change and the growing role of Christianity an argument that provoked intense debate and controversy. The narrative traces the Roman Empire from the height of its power through the history of Byzantium to the fall of Constantinople in 1453 helping to frame the Roman and medieval worlds as part of a continuous historical process. Because of its critical use of primary sources analytical explanations and sweeping chronological scope the book became one of the most influential historical works of the eighteenth century and a model for later historians.
