Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. This two volume set presents the writings of Edmund Pendleton of Caroline County, Virginia. While the two volumes are complete in regard to containing Pendleton's writings, these are Volumes 7 and 8 of the open numbered series "Virginia Historical Society Documents", issued under the imprint "Published for the Virginia Historical Society by the University Press of Virginia". Edmund Pendleton was a lawyer, burgess, Revolutionary moderate, and judge. He sat in the House of Burgesses, served in the First and Second Continental Congresses, chaired Virginia?s Committee of Safety in 1775, presided over the 1776 convention that moved Virginia toward independence, helped Jefferson and Wythe revise the state code, and later led the 1788 ratifying convention and the Court of Appeals. He favored reconciliation longer than Henry, then the Constitution. Editor Mays had already written the standard life, "Edmund Pendleton, 1721?1803: A Biography" (Harvard, 1952). These set is NOT his biography. THESE two volumes are the documentary companion, whose aim is to present Pendleton's writings, (other than his published judicial opinions), "as completely and accurately as possible" as Mays writes in the preface. It is a sourcebook, NOT a narrative. It can be read for Pendleton?s own voice on Virginia?s break with Britain, state-making, and early federal politics, and for the business of a planter-lawyer.ABOUT THIS SET: Both volumes are bound in matching two toned purple and gray linen with gilt lettering on the cover and spine. Both volumes contain a frontispiece in black and white. Continuously paginated from Volume I through Volume II. Each copy measures 10 inches tall x 7 inches wide x 1.25 inches thick.
