Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. "The Journal of William Maclay, United States Senator from Pennsylvania 1789 - 1781" was first published in 1890, and then reprinted in 1927. The edition here offered was published by Frederick Ungar in 1965 in the "American Classics Series". It is graced with an Introduction by the esteemed Americ…an historian, Charles A. Beard. The following is taken from what remains of the clipped dust-jacket |> William Maclay, a lawyer with a classical training, and Senator from Pennsylvania, 1789 to 1791, set down for posterity in his daily journal the issues debated, the procedures evolved, the precedents set and the bills passed which shaped the structure and became the very heart of our Federal government."The Journal of William Maclay", written as a private document, is to be treasured for its political value in supplementing the meager records of the first Congress, and providing historians with a vivid portrait of the scenes and personalities behind the closed Senate doors. It is important also for its social and literary value in recording the manners and customs of the day in a style which is, at once, elegant, flowing, and concise. Republished here in the "American Classics" series, it makes fascinating reading for both students of political history as well as the general reader. <| Said Charles A. Beard, in his Introduction : "[This is} a fascinating step-by-step account of the first U. S. Congress at work - [it is] one of the most precious human documents for the study of American manners, morals, and intelligence - political and general." SERIES : American Classics TITLE : The Journal of William Maclay, United States Senator from Pennsylvania, 1789 - 1791 AUTHOR : William Maclay (1737 - 1804) INTRODUCTION : Charles A, Beard (1874 - 1948) IMPRINT : Frederick Ungar Publishing Co. PLACE : New York DATE : (1965) STATUS : Out of Print - OP DETAILS : Trade hardcover' red cloth-covered boards and spine, with both black and white lettering on spine; top text-block edge dyed dark gray; 5.75" x 9"; Contains a frontispiece portrait of Maclay, an Introduction, a Preface, footnotes, Index. [xxii] + 429 pages. CONTENTS : FIRST SESSION OF THE FIRST CONGRESS - On Title and Ceremonies - The First Tariff Debate - The Judiciary Bill - On the Permanent Residence of Congress SECOND SESSION OF THE FIRST CONGRESS - Speculation in Classification - The Assumption and Naturalization Bills - Salaries and Pensions - The Permanent Residence - The Funding Bill - On the Residence of Congress - The Settlement and Assumption Bills THIRD SESSION OF THE FIRST CONGRESS - As to Re-election - Centralization of Power - Relations with France and the Excise - Rules of Proceedings - Index CONDITION -- This is a previously owned book that has a couple of minor issues, but which remains essentially clean and presentable. The dust-jacket is present only in clipped and preserved parts. The following particulars noted : EXTERIOR -- Spine extremities slightly compressed and with fraying just beginning to the bottom extremity (very small effect); fore-edge corner tips are mildly bumped, else exterior is bright and clean. Top edge of text-block partially faded, else edges are clean with only a bit of weathering (most noticeable near the spine on the bottom edge). BINDING -- Solid INTERIOR -- There is a brief gift inscription at the top of the front free end-paper, dated 1971 (In the picture we provide of this, we have blurred the names). The most noticeable imperfection in the book is the mark left on the title page by (I presume) a piece of tape - long ago removed. This mark has transferred in a small way to the frontispiece (very small), and to the verso of the title page. There is also a small smudge at the fore-edge of the title page. The rest of the interior is clean and free of marking. DUST-JACKET -- Exists only in three parts, neatly clipped and preserved, but no longer serving a purpose as a dust-jacket. Contains the blurb and brief author bio.
