Contact seller5-star sellerOne of the Few Accounts of Senate Floor Activity in the Early Congresses Maclay, William [1737-1804]. Maclay, Edgar S. [1863-1919], Editor. Journal of William Maclay, United States Senator from Pennsylvania, 1789-1791. New York: D. Appleton and Company, 1890. xiv, [2], 438 pp. Portrait frontispiece. Octavo (8-1/2" x 5-3/4"). Ori…ginal cloth, gilt frame and title to front board, gilt title and ornaments to spine, top edge gilt. Light rubbing to boards, moderate rubbing to extremities, spine ends and corners bumped, light wear to joints at head, front hinge starting, Light toning to interior, later owner signature of Charles G. Webb, dated 1945, to front free endpaper. $150. * Only edition by Edgar Maclay, a descendant and notable historian. Maclay was one of the first two senators from Pennsylvania and a founder of the Democratic Party. His diary, which provides an almost daily account of the first three sessions of the First Congress, is notable for its strong, often acerbic opinions. It is also a valuable historical record because Senate sessions were closed to the public and press until 1795, so his diary is one of the few accounts of Senate floor activity in the early Congresses. Webb [1899-1992] was a lawyer, judge and historian who lived and worked in Tioga County, Pennsylvania.
