FIRST EDITION. Full contemporary sheepskin binding. Published Philadelphia: Wm. Poyntell, 1806, 8vo., 5 1/2" x 8 3/4", i+547pp. Text in Greek and Latin. Based on the London edition of Thomas Hutchinson's text with much correction, this is the first printing of Xenophon in America and the first book printed in Greek type that was cast in America.
