Descrizione:
Eighth American edition (as claimed upon the title page). Hardcover: H 21.5cm x L 13.5cm. Collates as [frontis], 1-364, [rfep], [rp]. Contemporary leather boards and spine. Detached front board a tad oversized in comparison to rear board and thus not original to book (but retained as it was found); rear board detached as well but with its binding strings matching those on spine so original to book; both boards scuffed and stained with peeling to surface leather; spine chipped at ends with lengthwise strong vertical furrow causing slender loss to spine's original gilt lettered red title label. First leaf present is a toned/foxed and stained tenuously attached frontispiece portrait of Jefferson (uncredited but by Enoch G. Gridley) with torn top fore-edge corner; unfortunately only a remnant portion of foldout map is present between pages 4-5; Madison's Cave present on page 32; foldout table present between pages 138-139. Varied foxing/toning throughout with some stains and soiling; horizontal tears to pages 225-228. Text block remains firm. Book now presented in a trimmed clear Dura-Lar (polyester film) sheet forming a dj which aids in securing the boards and modestly enhances shelf presence. With two appendices, the first titled "Appendix" (pages 297-328) but with three sections - "No. 1" Charles Thompson's notes; "No. 2" Draught of a Fundamental Constitution for the Commonwealth of Virginia, and "No. 3" An Act for Establishing Religious Freedom followed by "Appendix, Relative to the Murder of Logan's Family." (pages 329-364). Sold as is with all faults - certainly needs to be re-cased. ***** This Boston-David Carlisle imprint was one of at least five 1801 editions issued to commemorate Jefferson's inauguration. The book was first published in Paris in 1785 with another Paris edition in 1786 and a London edition in 1787. American editions followed in 1788, 1794, and 1800. Acquired from a Hazlehurst, Copiah County, Mississippi estate with no preceding provenance known. Codice articolo CVA-01632
