Leather, four
hundred pages.

inches
Three
engravings, all have faded with foxing.
Some pages
are torn, all are present. Covers are in poor condition, Spine chipped at top
and bottom, covers loose, notes from previous owner on the first blank page.
The beauty
of this book comes from the note, and the way the book has been read is
obvious, it was a treasure to read from, the pages show the wear of a family
that read from it often.
“The
history of the United States on perusing this volume we not only find much to
amuse but also to instruct. It sets before us instances of virtue, enterprise,
courage, generosity and incites us to follow such a noble example.”
