Diary Of The American Revolution from Newspapers and Original Documents [2 Volumes]

Descripción

This is a fairly early work on the revolutionary war. Contains 7portraits, 6 maps, and 4 plates. One portrait is missing in volume 2 as there is tissue guard with no illustration of Major John (Howes calls for 12 plates). The covers are the original blind brown stamped cloth publisher's binding with gilt spine cover decoration. Volume 1 is chipped at interior edges of spine; volume 2 has been rebacked with a leather spine label added (the original publisher's covers were used). The contents are mostly clean and bright with a tiny bit of foxing to outside edge of a few plates, which is not particularly objectionable. There is an old owner name in pencil on title page and end paper of volume 1. The frontis portrait in volume 2 is foxed. All but one map are folding maps, and are all clean and bright. They include Savannah, Charleston, Boston, New York, etc. Volume 1: 529 p. Volume 2: 558 p. Ref: Howes: M 766; Sabin 50357 ; B&W Portraits & Maps; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 529, 558 pages. N° de ref. del artículo 17370
