Hardcover. Condizione: As New. No Jacket. Limited Edition. Burriana: A Catalogue of Rare Books, Pamphlets, Letters, Manuscripts, Documents & Objects by, About, or Relating to Aaron Burr And His Contemporaries Brian Davon Hardison collection, The Grolier Club, New York, 2012. 306 pp, hardcover in blue buckram, limited to 500 copies. This exhibition catalogue of 524 items was issued for a Grolier Club special exhibition "Aaron Burr Returns to New York: An Exhibition on Burr and His Contemporaries" held at the club from May 15-July 28, 2012. Hardison focused on a single subject but included material from associates and other contemporaries. Only a portion of the collection is autograph material.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Aaron Burr, Jr., (1756-1836), soldier, lawyer, statesman and the third Vice President of the United States under President Thomas Jefferson, was one of the most maligned figures of the founding era-accused of attempting to steal the Presidential election of 1800 from Thomas Jefferson, of murdering Alexander Hamilton in 1804 and of treason in 1807.
