Fifty Selections From Valerius Maximus is a book that was originally published in 1895. It is a collection of fifty stories and anecdotes from the work of Valerius Maximus, a Roman writer who lived during the first century AD. The book is divided into chapters, each of which focuses on a particular theme, such as courage, wisdom, or justice. The stories themselves are short and often moralistic, intended to teach a lesson or illustrate a particular virtue. They cover a wide range of topics, from the bravery of soldiers in battle to the wisdom of philosophers and the cruelty of tyrants. The book is written in English and is suitable for readers of all ages who are interested in Roman history and literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
