Hardcover. Condición: New. Query? How is it possible to have a 1909 book in new condition? Answer: The book was carefully stored in its original box for over a century, never opened. When acquired by this bookseller the book was lacking the original onion-skin dust jacket and therefore was immediately placed in an archival quality clear Brodart cover. The covers of the book are bright red with sharp gilt lettering and the gilt emblem of the State Historical Society of Iowa on the spine and the front cover. Top of the pages are gilt, and bottom and outer edge of the pages are deckled. 279 pages, including notes and references and an index.
