About This Item
Harper & Brothers, New York, 1876. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/No Dust Jacket. 508pp; This book is an incredible look at history from an 1876 perspective going back to Biblical times; These papers were originally published in Harper's New Monthly Magazine, and then were compiled for this book; I can find no firm proof that this is from a first printing, but the date on the title page matches the date on the copyright page (at that time, the Act of Congress date); Maroon boards with gilt lettering have substantial bumping and rubbing, but the binding is very tight; There is tape reinforcement along the front inside cover; Owner's name on front inside cover; Pages are yellowed, but are tight and clean; The number 3260 appears at the bottom of the Preface page, but I'm not sure if this was a numbered edition, or signifies something else. There are no markings elsewhere; Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: 2 - 3 pounds. Category: History; History::World History; Pictures of this item not already displayed here available upon request. Inventory No: 103463. . Additional shipping charges may apply.
