Attention Historians and Civil War Enthusiasts! Published by The Seventh Regiment, New York. This is the First Edition.
It is an all-matching set. The set contains 11 steel engraved portraits, and dozens of woodcut engravings and vignettes.Covers the regiment military activities from the war in 1812 to the Civil War. There are also many short biographies on officers in this unit.
Condition / Notes: The books show some markings from once having been in the library of The Historical Society of York County. The covers are firmly attached. The binding shows some general wear with some tearing/loss to top/bottom of spines.
All pages are clean and tightly bound. Top edge of pages has gilt edge. As I thumbed through the book, I noticed that there are some pages that have uncut foredge. These rare books would be a wonderful addition to a collection.
