Faintest binding edgewear only -- internally tight and fine; Lincoln-theme bookplate on each front pastedown with collector's tiny name neatly excised. "Standa…rd Library Edition" of Beveridge's hefty biography incomplete at the time of his death. This copy bears choice autograph addition: Tipped facing the first volume half-title page is a Typed Letter Signed from Beveridge, 1p, 8" X 10", Indianapolis, IN, 17 October 1899. Addressed to Adrian H. Joline (1850-1912), a New York attorney and devoted autograph collector who authored such books as "Meditations of an Autograph Collector" (1902) and "Rambles in Autograph Land" (1913). Very good. Faint original folds. On "United States Senate" letterhead, the just-minted senator who'd only been in office seven months "introduce[s] to you, Mr. Francis E. Stevens of Columbus, Indiana, who desires to settle in New York and become a lawyer. Mr. Stevens is an excellent young man, of good habits, trustworthy, capable and industrious. I would be very much obliged to you indeed if you will help Mr. Stevens in every possible way. The favor will be well bestowed. I trust it may be possible for you to find a place for him in your office." Boldly signed, with a New York address pencilled beneath ("68 W. 38th St.") presumably in Joline's hand. Beveridge (1862-1927) was a noted Indiana senator (1899-1911) who won the 1920 Pulitzer prize for his 4-volume "Life of John Marshall," but it is for his mammoth biography of Abraham Lincoln that he is best remembered; it was only half finished when he died on 27 April 1927 at age 64 and thus only runs up through the year 1858. Sharp set of this handsome quartette, with interesting content author letter. MONAGHAN 2999.

Contact seller5-star sellerHardcover. First Edition. 8vo. Dark khaki green cloth with gilt lettering and decorations. v, 486pp. 2 maps. Near fine. Other than the most minor of faint binding wear, only a small hand-lettered shelf label near foot of spine. Handsome, quite tight first edition of Beveridge's first book -- twenty-nine essays on Russia's alarmi…ng growth and aggression that first appeared as "Saturday Evening Post" articles, here with much added appendix material. Best of all, this lovely copy is boldly inscribed by Senator Beveridge in black ink on front flyleaf to a fellow Senate colleague: "To / Senator Allison / With Sincere Regards of / Albert J Beveridge." Beveridge (1862-1927) served Indiana in the Senate (1899-1911) but is best remembered as the Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer of John Marshall and for his massive, posthumously-published biography of Abraham Lincoln. William B. Allison (1829-1908) was the powerful Iowa Republican who, as U.S. senator from that state (1873-1908), was one of the "big four" who controlled the Senate -- whom Beveridge once described admiringly as a "marvelous combination"; as chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee for most of those years, he championed tariff legislation and co-authored the Bland-Allison Act of 1878; as member of the Senate Finance Committee he was often courted by U.S. presidents to hold cabinet positions. Inked note on front flyleaf (not in Allison's hand) notes probably when the senator received the book: "Washington D.C. / May 19, 05." Early 20th century bookplate on front pastedown notes "This book is part of Allison Memorial Collection Gift of Mrs. Jennie A. Brayton" and until deaccessioned was part of Allison's non-circulating collection at his hometown public library across the street from his Dubuque residence. According to Leland L. Sage in his 1956 biography "William Boyd Allison: A Study in Practical Politics," Allison owned "hundreds of books on government, economics, history, banking, finance, and the tariff [as well as] volumes of American and English literature. An omnivorous reader, Allison doubtless read most of these volumes, if only for relaxation from the strain that accompanied his efforts to solve the many problems facing the Nation." Signed copies of Beveridge's Marshall book are scarce and desirable -- while it seems likely that Beveridge presented copies of his first book to other Senate colleagues, this presentation copy from him to Allison is the first signed copy we have encountered. Signed.

Octavo, four volumes bound in the publisher's cherry-red three-quarter crushed morocco at the Riverside Press with gilt titles and ruling to the spine in six compartments, top edge gilt, red silk ribbons… tipped in, tissue-guarded frontispiece portrait of Abraham Lincoln and additional tissue-guarded color plate views of the Lincoln Memorial to each volume, illustrated with thirty-two tissue-guarded plates and maps throughout, window-mounted leaf of the author's manuscript research notes adhered to the front flyleaf of Vol. I, some pages uncut, stamp-signed by the Riverside Press. One of one thousand numbered sets printed at the Riverside Press, Cambridge, U. S. A., this is number 130. In fine condition, bookplate from the library of American banker and philanthropist Frank K. Houston to the front flyleaf of Vol. II. An exceptional set. Praised for his biographies of Chief Justice John Marshall and President Abraham Lincoln, American historian and United States Senator Albert J. Beveridge has introduced the public to the realities of the lives of revered historical figures. Using analysis and thorough investigation, Beveridge was able to contextualize the actions of America's sixteenth president with his traditions and influences in his four-volume biography 'Abraham Lincoln 1809-1858,' published post-humously in 1928. His contributions to historical study cannot be understated, and the American Historical Association's Beveridge Award exists to demonstrate as much.

Both items neatly tipped-in onto a leaf from an album. Both in good condition, on lightly-aged paper. The letter is 1p., 8vo. Beveridge begins by explaining that he is late answering Gallup's letter because he has been 'working so hard for many months to finish the last two volumes of my "Life of John Marshall" that I have been…forced to neglect all correspondence'. He is enclosing 'the quotation, autographed as requested'. He is glad Gallup liked the article, and 'flattered by your too partial words'. He ends: 'Thinking that you might be interested, I am sending you, under separate cover, copy of an address which I delivered at the annual meeting of the Pennsylvania Bar Association on the same subject.' (not present). The transcript is 1p., 8vo, and consists of twenty-one lines beginning 'The League can be established only by treaty.' Its source is given at the end as 'The North American Review.', with the date '1882' in pencil. Neatly presented, it is signed at the end 'Albert J. Beveridge'. It concludes in stirring fashion: 'The situation of the American nation is unique. Geographically it sits on the throne of the world. Its history is that of the evolution of a distinct, separate, and independent people. Its mission is no less than to create a new face on the earth and to present to mankind the example of that happiness and well being which comes from progressive, self-disciplined liberty.'.
