Throughout the printer's plates' impressions are visible. Volume 1 has an engraving of Rollins as its frontispiece. This is smart. There are two books in this volume: 'The ancient history of the Egyptians' and 'The History of the Carthaginians'; there is also a preface on the uses of 'profane history' especially in regard to religion. The pages are neat and tidy. Volume 2 T. Gillet printer: 'The history of the Carthaginians contd.' The History of the Assyrians' 'The foundation of the empire of the Persians and Medes .' plus articles 'The history of the origin and first settlement of the several states and governments of Greece' plus articles 'The history of the Persians and Grecians'.

This applies to the consequent maps in the book. Some pages have tanning some have foxing but most are clean clear and contented. Volume 7: G. Woodfall printer: 'Sequel of the history of Alexander's successors contd.' Again some pages are foxed some tanned. Most are companionable and comfortable and clean. The maps are utterly engaging again drawn by the legendary D'Anville who was known for his partiality to accuracy and tidy. The early pages have some very light creasing to the bottom edges. These pages also have some light markings and surface storage impressions. Volume 8 G. Woodfall printer: 'The history of Syracuse' 'The history of Pontus'. A sure secure serene book.
