Hardcover. Condition: Good Plus. Dust Jacket Condition: Issued Without Jacket. A manual containing a multitude of facts about 1890s government at all levels in New York State. Its purpose was to provide a basic reference for each classroom on questions such as: What is a city? What officers does a city have, and how much are they paid? What are the duties of a town clerk? A game officer? A coroner? Keeping in mind these are questions asked and answered for New York State in 1893, and that population sizes, legislative districts, officials' names have changed, this remains a fascinating little volume. Much of the information here would change with each election so the number of editions has less meaning than the year of publication. This copy is about 120 years old. About 5 x 7 inches, 214 pages plus 14 pages of publisher's ads. Black cloth-covered boards with beveled edges and gold lettering on spine. Includes an index. This copy also has a brief newspaper article listing President Coolidge's Cabinet paperclipped to early pages titled "Preface to the Forty-First Edition." The paperclip has rusted over the years and has lightly stained several pages though all remain legible. The front interior hinge has cracked less than an inch at either end, o/w there has been only some minor wear and chipping to the spine ends and light bumping to the corners. Text edges are slightly soiled but text as a whole is clean, complete and unmarked. Binding remains tight and square. The book remains an historical resource and one wonders whether this kind of information is easily available in today's schools.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 5th or later Edition. MANUAL OF CIVIL GOVERNMENT FOR COMMON SCHOOLS NEW YORK H.C. NORTHAM 1889. This is not an uncommon title but what is unusual about it is the fact that the book is in very good condition. I am pleased to be able to present for your consideration, probably the best copy you will ever find of this vintage, of: A Manual of Civil Government for Common Schools Intended for Public Instruction in the State of New York, by Henry C. Northam. This small hard cover book (4 ¾ x 7 inches, 213 pages plus 19 pages of publisher s adverts) was published by C.W. Bardeen of Syracuse, New York, dated 1889 and noted on a subsequent page as being the Seventy-Fourth Edition. The subtitle reads: To which are appended the Constitution of the State of New York as amended at the election of 1888, the Constitution of the United States, the Declaration of Independence, etc. etc. The book is bound in dark green cloth boards with beveled edges and gilt titles on the spine. I found no Table of Contents although the book opens with a list of government officials who have served or are serving, at both national and state levels. Condition: This book is in very good condition, as mentioned. The boards are clean, slightly bumped and dust-dulled but the gilt titles on the spine still bright. Inside, a former owner has left his name & date on the first blank page and also the last blank page. He has also inserted many lightly penciled comments and check-marks throughout the book, many of which could certainly be erased with ease, and others not so easily. The interior pages otherwise are clean and without toning or foxing. Both hinges are intact, and the binding is tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…
