New York: Harper & Brothers Publishers, 1948.

First edition of this classic work of historical fiction. Octavo, original cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the title page in the month of publication, “For Joan Schmidt with the cordial best wishes of Thornton Wilder New York Feb. 23 1948.” Very good in a very good dust jacket.

By stepping back into the Rome of Julius Caesar, Thornton Wilder brings to surging life a dramatic period and one of the most magnificent personalities of all time. Through imaginary letters and documents, which are cunningly revealing, all of Rome comes to life in this, Wilder's penetrative historical recreation.
