Item description from seller

Third edition (Sabin 51015). Boards rubbed with loss from spine (lacks label), front board loose, rear joint weakening and beginning to split, lightly foxed throughout, ink name on front endpaper. 1826 Full-Leather. xii, 204 pp. 12mo. Original full leather. Dedicated to Thomas Prince, governor of New Plymouth. A reissue of what is generally accepted as the first historical work printed in English America, originally released in 1669 by Nathaniel Morton, secretary to the court for the jurisdiction of New Plymouth, and William Bradford's nephew. The work was most likely an abridgment of Bradford's manuscript, which was not published until its rediscovery much later. It is notable as the first published appearance of a list of signers of the Mayflower Compact, as well as the first published account of Thanksgiving. Sabin 51015. Howes M-851. Evans 12469: "'A supplement to New-England's memorial. By another hand'. Attributed to Josiah Cotton.
