Item description from seller

A smartly bound fourth edition of this collection of lectures on modern history from English educator, Thomas Arnold. Fourth edition. A collection of lectures, written almost exactly as they were delivered, on modern history. Each lecture explores topics such as: the biography of a society, the contrast between ancient and modern history, the study of language in history, the Austro-Spanish power, the siege of Genoa in 1800, transitions into internal history, the politics of religion, England after the Revolution, the credibility of historical texts, and much more. Written by Thomas Arnold, an English educator and historian. Bound in full brown calf. Externally, smart with light shelf wear and rubbing to the extremities. Fading to the spine and the odd mark to the board. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright and clean with the odd spot and light spotting to the endpapers. Contemporary ink inscription to the front endpaper dated 1849. Very Good.
