Washington's Farewell Orders to the Armies of the United States dated 2 
Nov. 1783. Also includes the transcript of the Paris Peace Treaty 
between Great Britain and the United States of America that formally 
ended the American Revolutionary War: "His Brittanic Majesty 
acknowledges the said United States, viz., New Hampshire, Massachusetts 
Bay, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, Connecticut, New York, New 
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina 
and Georgia, to be free sovereign and independent states, that he treats 
with them as such, and for himself, his heirs, and successors, 
relinquishes all claims to the government, propriety, and territorial 
rights of the same and every part thereof." There is also an account of 
the "Description of Experiments made with the Aerostatic Machine, &c. by 
M. Faujas de St. Fond." Mostly light dampstaining to many pages not 
affecting the text to any serious degree. Very Good internally in a 
recent and Fine binding. (#013263)        $500.00
