Translations from Horace. With Notes Third Edition Enlarged./ Poems Ossian. With an Introduction, Historical and Critical, By George Eyre-Todd
Horace (De Vere, Sir Stephen E., Editor,) / Ossian (James Macpherson translator)
Two volumes bound in one: Translations from Horace ( lxv 172 pages) and Ossian ( lxix 298 pages ) The spine is split from the front board from the head to three quarters of the way down and is torn at the head. Sadly this spoils a very handsome copy.The front end end paper is discoloured around the edges and has an onwrship inscription on its verso; pp xliii to xli have minor circular loss to the blank outer edge near the head. Internally the book is very good, clean, unamarked and solid. A very good copy, with good only boards.
