Next up, the oldest book of the lot: the great Richard Porson's four plays of Euripides, all bound together. The Hecuba (1808) appeared in the year of his tragically early death. This much loved copy comes from the library of missionary John Furniss Ogle and Stonyhurst College.

@ThatEricAlper Mick Fleetwood. His drumming... so wonderful. And when I realized what a drummer could do to make me understand a song I started listening even closer to all the other parts.
