This is a catalogue of the library of the late Henry Thomas Buckle (1821-1862), the English historian, sociologist, and chess player, best known for his unfinished History of Civilization. This catalogue details the books to be sold at auction following Buckle's death, offering a glimpse into the personal library of a significant intellectual figure of the 19th century. It provides insight into Buckle's wide-ranging interests and sources. A valuable resource for book collectors, historians of ideas, and anyone interested in the intellectual history of Victorian England, this catalogue offers a rare opportunity to reconstruct, at least in part, the working library of a major scholar.
