ESTIENNE (Henri). A discussion of the conformity of the French language with Greek. (Geneva), Henri Estienne, (1565). In-8, granite calf, decorated spine, red edges (18th century binding).

Upper hinge partially split, cap missing, corners rubbed, title a bit pitted. From the Varenne library in Fenille, with armoured ex-libris.
