Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. Second book of a three volume set. Translated from the Greek by John Dryden et al. Plutarch's Lives of the Noble Greeks and Romans, commonly called Parallel Lives or Plutarch's Lives, is a series of 48 biographies of famous men, arranged in tandem to illuminate their common moral virtues or failings, probably written at the beginning of the second century AD. The surviving Lives comprises 23 pairs of biographies, each pair consisting of one Greek and one Roman of similar destiny, such as Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar, or Demosthenes and Cicero. It is a work of considerable importance, not only as a source of information about the individuals described, but also about the times in which they lived. This edition is undated but Belford, Clarke was only in business between 1879 and 1892, so this book was likely printed during that period. Brown cloth binding, gold titles on spine. No stated publishing history so presumed first edition, first printing thus. This is a used book. Pages are clean and bright with no markings, notes, or highlighting. No owner's marks or bookplates, not ex-library. Binding is tight and square; there is a half inch stain in upper left of front board. Fraying at top and bottom of spine. Hinges are loose.
