Item description from seller

52pp, stitched into original printed wrappers [light wear, light rubberstamp of Historical and Philosophical Soc. of Ohio]. Very Good. Binney supports Lincoln's authority to suspend habeas corpus, despite the Constitution's suggestion that only Congress may do so. Sabin calls this the first edition, followed later in the year by a Philadelphia printing by Sherman. Appleton writes of Binney that, 'In fine, he was in all particulars a most accomplished lawyer.' Sabin 5481.Bartlett 425. I Harv. Law Cat. 173. Not in LCP.
