About this Item
Published by Brentano's in 1919. Inscribed by the author on the front endpaper: "To the President of the Log Cabin Institute, from the author, July 1921. Formerly part of the Stockbridge Library's Historical Room, and contains their book plates on the front endpaper, cards and receptacles on back endpaper, and deaccession markings. Hard cover, no dust jacket. See photos for condition. Hard cover board corners curling in, especially bottom corners. Some bubbling to fabric on front board near fore edge, and top of back board. Some waviness to fabric near top of spine. Fabric on top/bottom of spine creased, with some small rips A few dings to top edge of back board, more minor bumping on bottom edges. Endpaper toned. Front hinge feels a bit tender, moreso on the bottom than top. Title page and photo plate heavily toned brownish. Edges of text block not uniformly trimmed, so some pages have small chips or bumps in their edges. Edges of pages toned. Some pages have thin crease-like lines running down the top edge near the gutter due to age. Light pencil markings present on ~10-20 pages (almost entirely faded bracket marks around parts of text). Ink fading in few places. Some light foxing on pages opposite plates. Fold-out map toned at center of crease. Binding loosened with age, with widening in the gutters with mesh and thread visible in some places, but overall holding together well - no sections feel loose and no apparent splitting or cracking.
