THE Latin dictionary for the student of Post-Classical Latin. While the Oxford Latin Dictionary is excellent, it stops at 200 A.D. For any one interested in the rapidly expanding field of Late Antiquity, as I am, this is simply the only exhaustive dictionary out there. Note- this is not to say that this book does not cover classical Latin, only that it goes beyond what the OLD does.

Big and Heavy. If I ever need to learn Latin, I'll be prepared.
Good condition. Previous owner's name in ink inside front cover. Hinges weakening at front and back of book. Rest of book has clean pages and tight binding. Edges are darkened stained with age. Covers scuffed.
