Valerii Maximi libri novem factorum dictorumque… by Valerius Maximus.

A popular collection of historical anecdotes. Boswell used such collections as justification for writing anecdotal biography: "...On the other hand, how useful is such a faculty if well exercised. To it we owe all those interesting apophthegms and memorabilia of the ancients, which Plutarch, Xenophon, and Valerius Maximus, have transmitted to us." See Life, V, 414.
