ADDRESSES AND STATE PAPERS OF SPIRO T. AGNEW, GOVERNOR OF MARYLAND 1967-1969. Edited by Franklin L. Burdette, Professor of Government and Politics, University of Maryland. (2 volumes).

- Octavo, black cloth titled in gilt on the front covers and the spines with the state seal depicted on the front covers. The covers are soiled and very slightly warped. Consecutively paginated, with the same index printed in both volumes: Pages [i]-xix, [1]-495, [1] leaf, & the index; and pages [i]-xix, 496-1,002, [1] leaf, & 1,005-1,039. Each volume is illustrated with a portrait frontispiece of Spiro Agnew. Very good. The state papers and addresses of the controversial Maryland Governor Spiro Agnew, who went on to become Vice President of the United States under Richard Nixon. Rumored to have accepted brides, Spiro Agnew was forced to resign while under indictment for tax fraud soon before the Watergate scandal brought down President Nixon.
