James Moor, 1712-1779, professor of Greek at Glasgow University, was a brother-in-law of Andrew Foulis, and one of those who superintended
the publication of the edition of Homer from the Foulis press. The first edition of his
Elementa Linguæ Græcæ was published in Glasgow in 1766.
A copy of Moor’s Greek Grammar translated by Ewen was one of the first books ordered by Jefferson after the sale of his library
to Congress.

This is the
first American edition of this work, originally compiled for the use of the pupils at the College School at Gloucester, England.
The third London edition, on which this edition is based, was printed in 1794. This American edition is anonymous; it contains
at the beginning a letter from Joseph Willard, the President of Cambridge University, Massachusetts, dated April 22, 1800,
and addressed to the printers, and an advertisement of Cambridge University dated from Cambridge July 7, 1799. A second edition
was printed in Boston in 1805, and in 1815 and 1820 editions appeared in New York, revised by George Ironside. In 1828 the
book was revised by John Snelling Popkin, and reprinted as the first Cambridge edition.
