Wythe's Library
From Wythepedia: The George Wythe Encyclopedia
George Wythe collected books over the course of his lifetime and developed an extensive personal library.[1] Until 2008, very little was known about the contents of Wythe's library. Colonial Williamsburg attempted to identify specific titles as early as 1958 when Mary R.M. Goodwin, a senior researcher at the Rockefeller Library, wrote The George Wythe House: Its Furniture and Furnishings [2] Goodwin listed 54 titles and divided them into three categories: law books, journals, and miscellaneous. Within these categories, Goodwin identified several of Extant Wythe Volumes.
