About This Item
Signed. First Edition, 1892. Ancient Greek military history written in the 3rd person which is used to teach the Greek language; thus the dictionary. The book has minor rubs and scuffs all around and there is a one inch tear at the bottom of the title page which seems to be from brittle paper. There is are quarter inch tears on 2 pages at the end of the book in the advertising section. The pages are toned, but evenly so and the book is very tight and only lightly read. There is a previous owners bookplate on the front end paper. That owner is Henry Gibbs Morgan. The book is inscribed on the front free end page "H. Gibbs Morgan, Esq. from M. H. Morgan".

About mark mcdonald
Book collector for over 30 years. I'm retired and ready to sell. I buy almost exclusively from estate sales and since I've lived in Dallas my whole life, I know the people and where to go. I am a low volume collector and seller and deal in higher quality books. I have a lot of signed and inscribed books. These signatures have not been officially authenticated, but I am confident in their authenticity so I will guarantee them in perpetuity if it can be reasonably demonstrated that the signature is incorrect. .
