Item description from seller

8vo, [20], 592 pages, contemporary full calf, leather label, rehinged. Second Printing. Perkins may have edited this and the best opinions say that Albach probably compiled it as well as publishing it. Includes a Chronological Table, and a List of Sources. "It is a great collection of details of frontier warfare; but contains little material that is new, or indeed not published in a hundred forms, yet it is much esteemed as a history of Western Settlement -Field 18." [Howes P231, listing the first printing as 1846; not in Graff; Sabin 60954]. Double-page map of Louisiana and the Valley of the Mississippi; map of Kentucky by John Filson. Howes reports Albach as the actual compiler, and Perkins merely the editor.

Store description

Joyce And Company, established 1975, works out of an office near Chicago's Loop. There are usually 15-20,000 books on-site and available for browsing. Mr. Joyce was a founding partner of the former Chicago Rare Book Center, of Chicago and Evanston, Illinois.

We still do appraisals on a wide variety of subjects, from literature to history, fine books, children's, presses, theology, law, medicine, maps, autographs. These topics are reflected in our inventory, and much more, including Sherlockiana. In addition to regional institutions nearby Chicago and Illinois, we have been able to place rare materials with the American Antiquarian Society, The Library of Congress, The Bodleian Library, Harvard and Yale Universities, the Presidential Libraries of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington, et cetera. …
