Danville, VA: Dance Brothers Company, 1899. Original Wrappers. Good binding. 12mo. 119 pp. Gray wrappers with title stamped in gold on the front cover; fairly fragile binding, particularly at the front joint and first signature. While a work of fiction, this is among that genre of vernacular history told through the lens of a freed enslaved person (Uncle Yorke in this case) in the early 19th century who recounts stories of Washington's time, Bacon's Rebellion, and "Indians." As one would expect, written in an offensively, heavy-handed dialect. Uncommon. Hayne 4789.

In publisher's purple cloth with folding frontispiece map and ten engraved plates throughout, all present as called for. A solid copy with limited rubbing; spine is intensely sunned; small contemporary ink note on the verso of the first blank with some offsetting to the back of the frontispiece map; small moisture spot to the fore-edge of the textblock that has left a tideline to the outer margin about about a dozen leaves, not affecting text and not very off-putting; rear free endpaper is adhered to the final blank leaf at the top corner. A popular genre in the mid-19th century, there were many of these guides to the springs of Virginia and other attractions. The author, Edward A. Pollard is most recognized for his many Civil War histories, biographies, memoirs, and the perpetuation of the Lost Cause narrative. Sabin 63879.
