About This Item
New York: Blelock & Co, 1866. Hard Cover. near Very Good binding. 12mo. 153 pp. First edition. Inscribed by the "editor" the year of publication. As issued, in publisher's cloth; all edge gilt. Light shelfwear only; a small white stain on the tail of the spine; some rippling and very faint tidelines to the inner margin of the first few dozen leaves; no visible evidence of moisture exposure to the binding. But for this rippling this is an extremely nice copy of this collection of songs, many of which relate to the Civil War and the South's heroes. Further enhanced by De Leon's inscription on the first blank.
