First English Editions, by an unknown translator; the originals were in French. Volumes 6 and 7 by Rollin, published in 1742; Volume 10 by Crevier, published in 1745. Fair overall, though v10 is poor. The paper and printing was excellent, though some maps are misfolded; foxing to pastedowns of v6 and 7, light foxing to interior of v7. Modern bookplate to each volume on front pastedown. Full-leather bindings quite damaged, the spines are heavily chipped, worn and cracked with the title-pieces chipped off except for a portion of v7; leather rubbed and worn, corners worn to boards; broken throughout due to spine cracks. Volume 6 came apart completely and was repaired with a new front hinge, new rear joint and hinge, and partially replaced spine (Japanese paper was used for half of spine and front joint), the book is still quite fragile; blindstamp on ffep and a name stamped twice on the blank page following the ffep. Volume 7 has repaired front joint and hinge; rear board is barely attached, rear hinge broken; blindstamp on ffep. Volume 10 has detached front and rear boards; a 7.25in x 2.5in rectangle of the original leather on rear board cut out, prev. owner replaced leather with four smaller leather pieces glued into rectangle; name stamp on ffep; water stain to bottom edge, affects bottom edges of pages from middle of book to the end. Each has a handsome engraved frontis: small stain in corner (off-picture) of v6; foxing to frontispiece of v10. v6 has a hand-colored folding map of Greece, which has been misfolded and torn, but still looks good. v7 has a folding map of Cisalpine Gaul, hand-outlined in yellow; also misfolded, but not torn. No map in v10 which covers events up to the Catiline conspiracy and the War with the Pirates (about 69 BC). We believe there were twelve volumes in all.…

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
Shipping terms
Orders usually ship within 2 business days. We ship by USPS, always with delivery confirmation. Customers within the US can expect no requests for extra shipping except for large sets and folios.
