About the Book
In 1757 John Baskerville printed his first book, an edition of Virgil’s works which burst upon the scene with some éclat.
Curiously, a second edition or reprint of this book was issued but with the same, but fake, publication date printed on the title-page; now it has become a much rarer find than the first.
This book compares the two.
