This 10-volume hardcover set of The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire by Edward Gibbon is a classic historical work detailing the rise and fall of the Roman Empire.


This is not a complete set. Missing volumes 3 and 12.


Published by Thomas Y. Crowell & Co., this edition includes notes by Rev. H. H. Milman and reflects one of the most enduring and influential works of historical literature.


The volumes are uniformly bound in red cloth boards with black spine labels and gilt titling, giving the set a cohesive and attractive appearance on the shelf. The interiors include detailed contents pages and traditional typesetting consistent with early printed editions of this work.


Condition shows clear age and use. The cloth covers exhibit rubbing, scuffing, and edge wear, with visible fraying and a worn area on one spine. Page edges are toned and show unevenness from age. Interior pages contain pencil notations and markings throughout multiple volumes, as shown in the photos. Bindings remain intact and the books are still structurally sound.


Overall acceptable condition — please review photos for complete details.
