Collated, complete.Mainly based on the work of Livy, Florus' work details many historical events in a favourable tone for Roman citizens, and is written in a bombastic style, dividing the life of Rome into periods of infancy, youth and manhood.Edited by 'Jo. Georgii Graevii'.With an illustrated school library bookplate to the front pastedown, and with the bookplate of St. Edward's School Sixth Form Library to the front free endpaper.
