About This Item
Phiadelphia: T B Peterson, 1852 Bound in bright red cloth with gilt borders, decorations and titles, aeg, 324 pp plus 12 pp ads. c1852 [copyright date with no date on tp.] This apparently the "fine edition in cloth and gilt". From the preface this is presented as a fiction but one taking actual experiences, observations and quotes and weaving them into the story line. It is also a response to Mrs Harriet Beecher Stowe and Uncle Tom's Cabin. This copy is moderately foxed throughout, has a chip ths size of a water spot in the middle of the spine and a 2" split to the spine covering at the back gutter. Still an attractive good to very good copy in attractive covers.
