Description

Springfield, Massachusetts: The C.A. Nichols Company, 1894. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. 0x0x0. Reiley, Alan C. U.S. Secretary of State Robert Lansing's copy, with his bookplate on front endpapers of three volumes (these were purchased from a family library in Henderson Harbor, NY, near his birthplace in Watertown, which included many other works owned by him). Spines faded, labels toned with some wear, some pages foxed, minor loss from volume 1 spine base. 1894 Hard Cover. Complete in seven volumes, a mixed set of original and revised editions. Volumes 6 and 7 update the material in volumes 1-5 to the years 1901 and 1910, respectively. Because there was such a large gap between the publication dates of the original set and these supplements, complete sets are more difficult to obtain. Color maps, black-and-white maps and plans, logical outlines in color, chronological tables, numerous appendices. This work has two aims: to represent and exhibit the better Literature of History in the English language, and to give it an organized body - a system - adapted to the greatest convenience in any use, whether for reference, or for reading, for teacher, student, or casual inquirer.
