Desperate Engagement: How A Little Known Civil War Battle Saved Washington D.C. and Changed American History by Marc Leepson. Published in 2007 by Thomas Dunne Books. Crisp and clean and bright Near Fine throughout, both the hardcover and dust jacket. No marks, name written top corner first inside page, 304 clean flat pages, tight square spine. I wrap and pack books carefully for mailing. See my reviews. Books are wrapped in kraft paper, then bubble wrap, before going into a padded mailer. All photographs are the actual book I'm offering for sale; no stock pics from me. I'm a collector who enjoys buying books and perpetually has too many! If you would like to see additional photos, or have questions, please ask. Of course I'll adjust postage for large multiple-book orders.
