Three-quarter leather over maroon pebbled cloth; five raised bands.All bound in the same manner with leater spines, tips and skivers. Minor shelf wear, leather is in excellent condition, virtually no foxing of pages. This is the publisher's edition, printed from the original plates and includes all of the editorial material (articles, stories, poetry, etc.) of the separate issues but lacks the advertisements and individual covers. It was the practice of the time for most of the better literary magazines to issue such editions before melting down the original printers' plates. Note: ''Harper's Magazine' began publication in 1850 and recreated the American magazine, serving as a promotional vehicle for Harper and Brothers books as well as the new 'literary' fiction and essay of the time, using sophisticated illustration and the best authors. Subject matters range from art, fiction, and poetry to history and science. As such it makes a terrific read as an anthology of its moment in time. A handsome set.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In the streets of Frederick, Maryland, one small gesture became a nation-shaping story. A town, a flag, defiance. Miss Eleanor D. Abbott revisits the Barbara Fritchie legend that inspired John Greenleaf Whittier, tracing how a local woman rose into a whittier heroine narrative of loyalty in a divided land.Part biographical sketch booklet, part collectible local history pamphlet, this concise portrait sets the scene around Frederick Maryland landmarks and the Maryland Civil War era that framed the famous union flag defiance tale. Alongside the life and reputation of its heroine, Abbott points readers towards the town itself, highlighting places and points of interest with the practicality of a historic sites travel guide. The result is ideal for civil war history fans and casual readers who want the human scale behind a public myth, and for Maryland heritage travellers planning a walk through Frederick's enduring streetscape.

Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today, a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. For John Greenleaf Whittier readers, it is a companion piece; for classic-literature collectors, a resonant keepsake of place, legend, and history.…
