About this Item

SIGNED by Theodore Roosevelt on a card pasted to the front free end page. Hardbound, no Dust Jacket. Volume 1 Only (of a 2 Volume Set). 1st Edition. The bookplate of Whitney North Seymour is affixed to the front pastedown. Seymour was the assistant solicitor general during the Hoover administration, and was later the president of the American Bar Association. The inner rear hinge is detached from the text block, and several pages from the rearmost signature are detached and laid in. The text block's sewn binding is otherwise sound and the front hinge is fragile but holding well. The hardcover boards and spine show edgewear and some marks to their surfaces. Several old newspaper clippings are scattered throughout the book and some offsetting is present where they are laid in. A bookseller's stamp from Boston's Old Corner Bookstore is present on the final page. The interior pages are otherwise clean with no foxing, writing, or similar marks. RARE!
