Active in the first century BCE, Marcus Vitruvius Pollio wrote his influential architectural treatise in ten books, covering a broad range of practical and theoretical topics. Complete with illustrative plates, this one-volume translation by Joseph Gwilt (1784–1863), first published in 1826, was long considered the standard English edition.
