This edition of Larcher, thanks to the new French translation - the first after the 17th-century one by Du Ryer - and to the useful geographical, chronological and material tables, made the reading of Herodotus more accessible to contemporaries and obtained great success.   7 volumes, 8vo (200 x 120mm).
