Title: Der Buchstabe H im Griechischen.
Description: Aschendorffsche Verlagsbuchhandlung, Münster (Westfalen), 1952. 51p. Sewn wrps. Small personal library mark and name on front over. "Smitt 'argues convincingly that the adaptation of the Phoenician letters to Greek was more practical than systematic; the Greeks took over, with the letters and their names (...), the acrophonic method of using them. He then argues that the vocalic value of H, as of A E O is a natural outcome of this manner of adpatation.' (D.M. Jones in The Classical Review (New Series) 1954, p.173). From the library of the late Sir Kenneth James Dover."
