This copy with a warm inscription: ".in remembrance of our association in the beligerent political years of 1910-1914. Frank B. Lamson". Some slight wear to the corners of the original brown cloth boards. Of major interest in this history is a chapter entitled "The Wild Woman of Manannah". The "Wild Woman" was Ms. Lucy Lobdell, who dressed in men's clothing and was "efficient in the use of firearms". She was tried for impersonating a man in 1858, but was acquitted. Very, very interesting. Inscribed by Author(s).
