HALLAM'S MIDDLE AGES
Paris: Baudry's European Library, 1835.
2 vols., 8vo (8.5 x 5.5 inches). Quarter tan calf, with unusual twin blue labels and gilt bands. Marbled boards, edges and endpapers. A classic binding.
One of the great nineteenth century historians, Hallam's reputation was firmly established by the publication of this, his first great work, in 1818, following 10 years of intense study. He has been credited with helping to lay the foundations of the English historical school, largely due to his meticulous study of original sources.
