56pp, stitched, untrimmed and generously margined, uncut. Mild foxing. Very Good plus. During the first three months of 1779, and for each month of 1780, Congress's Journals were published monthly. Each is a rare separate imprint. This issue treats various aspects of funding and provisioning for the War; authorizes General Washington to negotiate for an exchange of prisoners; insists on the supremacy of Congress over that of any State on questions of war and peace; reviews communications from Washington, Benedict Arnold, Thomas Paine, Baron Steuben, and others; and discusses foreign relations with European powers. FIRST EDITION. Evans 16587. Hildeburn 3899 note. ESTC W27023 [7 locations].
