Cincinnati: U. P. James, 1867. Sixth Edition. Wraps; 72 pages. One of 
only 500 copies printed letterpress. First published in Philadelphia in 
1783 (one copy known) and again several times within the next few years, 
with known copies restricted to a handful or so. This edition, which 
reprints the Nashville 1843 edition, is also rather uncommon, especially 
in this condition: entirely in loose untrimmed and unopened signatures, 
never bound. The "Memoir of John Slover" did not appear in the early 
editions but is present herein. All editions preceding this one are 
unprocurable or rare. Howes (K214) emphasizes the importance of this 
work in the early history of the Ohio Valley. Clean and bright, about 
Fine in original, unbound condition. 		$100.00
