title: Install A Specific Version of Boost With Homebrew on Mac
body: <p>I am trying to install an older version of Boost on my Mac using Homebrew.</p>
  
  <p>I am using:</p>
  
  <pre><code>brew install boost@1.53
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And receiving error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Error: No available formula with the name "boost@1.53" 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have performed:</p>
  
  <pre><code>brew search boost
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And I can see that I have all versions back to 1.55 installed.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way round this, how can I install 1.53?</p>
