This checklist of Thomas Hollis's gifts to Harvard College
Library documents the generosity and the motives of one of the
earliest and one of the greatest donors to Harvard University.
Promoting civil and religious liberty, Hollis distributed books in
his distinctive binding across Britain, Europe, and the American
colonies. Hollis's aims for Harvard College have received careful
attention from historians and bookmen, but the full extent of his
donations has not been clear until now. Thomas Hollis and his books
were the subject of William Bond's 1982 Sandars Lectures in
Bibliography at Cambridge University.
