About This Item
Four volume set, Daniel Boone Edition. Number 44 of only 200 sets. Original green morocco, floral gilt corner device, raised bands, gilt titled spine. Leaf from Roosevelt's manuscript mounted within, folded once. "... Great or lasting conquests of Spanish territory, their mutual jealousies, and the fear each felt of the others, were among the main causes of this state of things; and hence it came about that after the opening of the seventeenth century, the wars they waged against one another were of far more ultimate consequence than the wars they waged against the former mistress of the western world. England in the end drove both France and Holland from the field...." Professionally rebacked in Sokoto goatskin to match publisher's binding. Doublures and flyleaves in green Japanese silk.; Large, stout octavo; All shipments through USPS insured Priority Mail.
