Stitched in original printed wrappers [wrappers badly chipped]. Scattered foxing. Good+. New York's Mayor-- a secessionist at the opening of the Civil War, and a continual thorn in Lincoln's side-- orates on the life and accomplishments of America's most effective advocate of a strong central government. The biography is detailed and laudatory, acquitting him of the charge "that he was a monarchist in principle and an aristocrat in feeling." The account of the Burr duel lays blame entirely at the feet of his "unprincipled" and "profligate" adversary. FIRST EDITION. Haynes 21777. Ford 126. Not in Sabin, Swem, Decker, Eberstadt.
