Francis W. Halsey, Associate Editor.
Two millennia of Western Civilization come into focus through these 281 masterpieces by 213 rhetoricians. Selected under the supervision of the greatest orator of his time, these brief persuasive addresses form both a window into history's turning points as well as a timeless collection for any reference shelf.

All in good condition. Showing some discoloration due to age. The binding is very good and there are no loose pages that I can see.
