About The Author: John Tahourdin White (1809–1893) was a noted English classical scholar who contributed significantly to Latin and Greek scholarship. He edited various classical texts, including the Grammar School Texts. In collaboration with Joseph Esmond Riddle, he co-authored the 1862 Latin-English Dictionary, based on Ethan Allen Andrews's translation of Wilhelm Freund’s German Wörterbuch der lateinischen Sprache. Though influential, their dictionary was later overshadowed by the more comprehensive work of Lewis and Short in 1879. White also produced student-friendly dictionaries, including the College Latin-English Dictionary (1865) and the Junior Student's Complete Latin-English and English-Latin Dictionary (1869), enhancing classical education accessibility.
