About this Item
Description:
[4],iv,239pp. Half title. Antique half calf and marbled boards. Light tanning and foxing. Some staining in gutter margin of first half of text. Else very good. The journals of the second Continental Congress, covering its activities from convening on May 10, 1775 through adjournment on Sept. 5, 1775. The activities of this summer, against the background of open conflict in Massachusetts, are among the most dramatic of the Revolutionary era. Included are reports concerning Lexington-Concord, the address to the inhabitants of Canada inviting them to join the other thirteen colonies, numerous military matters, the Declaration of the Causes and Necessity for Taking Up Arms, the Olive Branch Petition, the American negotiations with the Six Nations, and other crucial material. Essentially this volume is the very crux of the beginning of the Revolution, convening a few weeks after open warfare had begun and recording the essential shift in attitude in the Congress from conciliation to revolution. These journals, like those of the first Congress, were printed in very limited quantities and are quite rare. HOWES J264, "aa." EVANS 14569. REESE, REVOLUTIONARY HUNDRED 20.
