Evidence for Inclusion in Wythe's Library

There is no doubt that Wythe owned this title—a copy of the 1746 edition of C. Sallustii Crispi Opera Omnia quae Extant at the Library of Congress includes George Wythe's bookplate. Thomas Jefferson also listed "Sallust. Delph. 8vo." in his inventory of Wythe's Library, noting that he kept the volume himself. He later sold it to the Library of Congress in 1815. Both George Wythe's Library[1] on LibraryThing and the Brown Bibliography[2] list the 1746 edition. As yet, the Wolf Law Library has been unable to procure a copy of C. Sallustii Crispi Opera Omnia quae Extant.
