FOLARD (Jean-Charles de), POLYBE. Histoire de Polybe, newly translated from Greek by Dom Vincent Thuillier (..). Avec un commentaire, ou un corps de science militaire, enrichi de notes critiques et historiques, où toutes les grandes parties de la guerre, soit pour l'offensive, soit pour la défensive, sont expliquées, démontrées, & représentées en figures (..). By M. de Folard (..). Nouvelle édition revûë, corrigée & augmentée d'un Supplément. A Amsterdam, Chez Zacharie Chatelain et Fils, 1759, 7 vols. in-4, one frontispiece, 3 folding maps and 142 folding plates, plum half calf, ornate ribbed spine, marbled edges (binding circa 1820). Third complete edition of this excellent and superb edition of Polybius, in the version of the Maurist Dom Thuillier, here in its definitive and most complete state. The first edition appeared in 1727-1730 at the Paris address, and comprised just 6 volumes. The number of plates varies from edition to edition. This seems to be the edition with the most plates (1720-1730, 106; 1774, 129). A very good copy. (Spine oiled, some browning, more marked on the last leaves of volume 1).
