1894 Thomas C. Seidle's Photographs of The Most Eminent Modern Statesmen and Politicians of the United States of America.  Over 200 politicians with their photographs and short biographies.  Includes Hiram U. Grant, better known as Ulysses S. Grant (the name his patron inadvertently wrote when Grant was appointed a cadet at West Point in 1839).  All edges marbled, beautifully illustrated with black and white photographs, glossy pages, all in great shape; however due to age visible damage to front and back cover, along with damaged spine (but all pages intact and none loose from binding).  This book was sold by subscription only and was entered according to An Act of Congress in the year 1893 by Thomas C. Seidle (see pic's for greater detail). Measures approx 12-1/4 " x 9-1/2" and 1-1/4" thick.   A great find for the history buff or collector of political figures.  PLEASE NOTE:  I have provided random photographs/pages as a sampling of page conditions.  All pages and photographs are in the same general condition as those provided.
