About This Item
Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 1967. First Edition, Second Printing. Hardcover with Dust Jacket. FINE/Fine. xiii, [3], 335 pp. 12mo, gray cloth, gilt spine lettering blocked in black. Faintest shelf rubbing to tips, entirely clean, tight, and fresh. DJ unclipped with $5.95 and no Pulitzer sticker, spine just faintly toned, crisp and clean otherwise, now wrapped in mylar. Scarce, particularly in this condition. Winner of both Pulitzer and Bancfroft prizes, Bailyn's great work is one of the masterpieces of Intellectual and Political history. Particularly innovative was Bailyn's histroriographical method in reviewing contemporary and antecedent pamphletry--both radical and moderate, secular and religious--as an analysis of the intellectual soil within with the Revolution sprouted.
