About This Item
N.p.: N.p., n.y.. Hardcover. 4to. Dark brown blind-embossed pebble grain cloth with gilt lettering. 246pp. Top edge gilt. Three heavy stock full page illustrations. Very good. Mild edgewear, with deckled page edges a bit age toned as usual. First of this trilogy reprinting George Bancroft's Lincoln eulogy of 12 February 1866, James G. Blaine's Garfield eulogy of 27 February 1882 and John Hay's McKinley eulogy of 27 February 1902. Strangely, this copy with half-title page only, cited above (and no title elaborating "Memorial Addresses Delivered Before the Two Houses of Congress on the Life and Character of") -- likely a printer's error or possibly variant other than the one Monaghan already notes. MONAGHAN 1402.
