Seller's Description:
Good. First edition. 12mo. 336pp. Lacks the folding map. Original muslin cloth with remnant of printed paper spine label with couple of contemporary owner's name and initials. Expected wear to original boards of this age with rubbing, some loss along the spine and chipping to the spine label along, with dampstain and small crease to title page, and scattered foxing, still a sound and presentable good copy. "Conditions just prior to the Revolution described by an actual observer" (*Howes* 48). Apparently this copy made the rounds: one of the owner's inscriptions is particularly interesting: "Samuel Haggard pd. on[e] dollar." Squire Haggard, the son of Samuel Haggard of Bedford County, Tennessee, served in the Army of the Republic of Texas in 1836 and 1837 during its war for independence with Mexico. This copy also bears the contemporary penciled initials "F.Q. $1.25" and the contemporary penciled name "Joseph Sharp" (a Joseph Sharp also served in the Army of the Republic of Texas). Important contemporary history of Texas, lacking the map as it often does.
