Abstract
Inscribed in 1857. Perhaps first published in 1846, the date included on the back of the title-page. Compare this book with my 1849/65 edition-and read my comments there. That book adds Döring as an author and is adapted to Andrews and Stoddard's Grammar rather than to Bullions'. It comes as no surprise then that it was written by Andrews while this is written by Bullions! These must have been competitors for years up to this point, if they are both in such late editions (that is listed as the sixty-fourth edition, this as the thirty-seventh). This book has a section of idioms before the introductory exercises and the fables. The first fifty-two fables seem verbatim identical; of course the numbers of the references below change, because they refer to two different books. This book does not have the fifty-third fable included there, De Vitiis Hominum. This book includes four alternative translations of the first fable in #14-17 on 330. Who wrote these fables that are so easily assumed by competitors to each other?
