Rare Antique 1862 Early Illustrated History Book, "THE GREAT REBELLION", by Headley, Volume I
DESCRIPTION: Beautiful early antique Civil War history book that came out in 1862, IN THE MIDST OF THE WAR!!! This is Volume I (only) of the original 2 volume set. This volume is Illustrated with 36 engraved picture illustrations. Contains 39 chapters in Volume I, each fully outlined as done at that time. Volume I contains actions from the start of the war up to June 1862.
Incredibly thorough history and very readable. ESPECIALLY USEFUL AND CURRENT AND ACCURATE AS IT WAS WRITTEN WHILE THE WAR WAS STILL BEING FOUGHT!!!
Hard cover with gold lettering. Nicecondition overall. Cover has the typical Victorian ornate "3 dimensional" design. Book measures 7 1/2" x 9 1/2" x 2 1/2" thick, and 506 PAGES LONG!!
Great reading and an excellent early, primary reference while the war was still being fought and the combatants were still alive and directly involved.
The attached scans will not do it justice, but hopefully will provide an idea of the content and condition and great potential reading/enjoyment.
Again, this is Volume I only, to complete a set you might have.
