The Diary of Henry Teonge : Chaplain On Board HM's Ships Assistance, Bristol, and Royal Oak 1675-1679

New York: Harper & Brothers, 1927. 8vo. 318 p. Illustrated. Cloth. Transcribed from the original manuscript and edited with an introduction and notes by G. E. Manwaring. The Broadway Travellers series. Edited by Sir E. Denison Ross and Eileen Power. First edition in this series. This is an exlibrary copy from Cape Cod's historic Sturgis Library, the oldest library building in the country. Originally owned by noted Cape Cod author Henry Crocker Kittredge -- it bears his bookplate and signature. Other library markings include pocket, barcode, and removable remnants of a spine label. Many pages in this volume are uncut, which indicates that it went unread by library patrons and even Mr. Kittredge himself! Spine slightly faded. Very minor shelfwear. Near fine.
