New York: Printed for the Author By Clayton and Kingsland, 1818.

Hard Cover. First Edition. Part I only, of three, in the publisher’s printed paper-covered boards; the binding has been neatly rebacked. Page 63/64 has long closed tear. The boards have edgewear. The names “Hill Carter of Shirley” and “Elizabeth Minge Carter” are on the front endpaper -- a nice Virginia association. With foxing throughout. Sabin notes that Part I was issued separately. (Howes C-535; Sabin 14021).

Very Good binding.
