Boards a little rubbed, and backstrip frittered at head and tail; cloth tape reinforcing to hinges; variable foxing throughout. Good condition. "The Classical Dictionary, published more than thi…rty years ago, of which this book is a revision, was designed by the late Sir WILLIAM SMITH to include in a single volume as much of the information contained in his larger Dictionaries of Biography and Mythology, and of Ancient Geography, as would be serviceable for the upper forms of schools, and might make it useful also as a compendious book of reference for somewhat more advanced students. . The design of this revised edition, projected by Sir WILLIAM SMITH more than two years ago, is much the same as that of the older work. . Hence the old limits are for the most part observed, and, as was then said, 'the historical articles include all the names of any importance which occur in Greek and Roman writers from the earliest times down to the extinction of the Western Empire in the year 476.".
