Josiah Smith of Suffolk County be the first Colonel - that Col. John Sands be second colonel with the rank of Col. but with the pay of Lieut. Col. that Abm. Remsen be Major -". 14 pages on requirement colonies manufacture their own gunpowder and a woodcut plan of Boston. A half page woodcut of man's anatomy on p4. Contained in the almanac is 14 pages devoted to the "United Colonies" (its wording) need to make their own gunpowder. It starts with the law, with John Hancock's signature, authorizing the manufacture of saltpetre. Saltpetre was the key ingredient in making gunpowder. Benjamin Rush writes on how saltpetre is made. This is followed by a page of instructions on how the actual gunpowder is finally made. It should be noted gunpowder was still made this way in the Civil War. This followed by a full page woodcut plan of Boston showing, among other things, the Liberty Tree, Bunker's Hill and Gen Gates' lines. Lastly a half page key to the plan. This map also gives the dates of the Lexington Concord & Bunker's Hill battles. Front cover, which is also tp, aged & lightly foxed. FLAWS. TP moderately aged & foxed. Other leaves lightly aged. First text leaf torn in half. Next leaf with 2" closed vertical tear at top gutter line. Corners rounded & scuffed but no other tears and no chips at all.

Bound with string, as issued. 167x105mm,(42)pp. Woodcut of person, & Boston map (illustrator). Signed by Illustrator(s).
