A fantastic example of this reference from 1870 and featuring signatures of the author and Admiral George Emmons. Emmons was a Civil War veteran and part of the team that discovered Antarctica!
A rare and interesting book with numerous handwritten notes providing updated on the biographical data. Formerly in the US Navy library, donated by Emmons. I will be offering several books from the Civil War period from the large collection of a deceased scholar from Mississippi. Please feel free to make offers, these are not my specialty, although great historical references.
