Theory of Algebraic Integers

"The book has historical interest in providing a very clear glimpse of the origins of modern algebra and algebraic number theory, but it also has considerable mathematical interest. It is truly astonishing that a text written one hundred and twenty years ago, well before modern algebraic terminology and concepts were introduced and accepted, can provide a plausible introduction to algebraic number theory for a student today."
