Jefferson bought a copy from

3 vol. 12mo. Jefferson seems to have sold all three volumes to Congress in 1815; the entry is checked in the contemporary
working copy of the Library of Congress 1815 Catalogue. This entry has however a manuscript notation
1st and 2nd volumes missing. The third volume is the only one called for in the later catalogues, and the first and second volumes are entered in the
manuscript list of books missing from the Congressional Library. The only volume now in the Library of Congress is a copy
of Volume I. A complete copy has not been found. The New York Public Library has a copy of Volume III (only) with the autograph
signature of John Adams.
The three volumes entered in Jefferson’s undated manuscript catalogue, without price.
F. Bottarelli, fl. 1777. No further information has been found concerning the author. From the evidence it would seem that he may have
been an Italian living in England.
