Arguments defendants counsel judgment (61 Ergebnisse)

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. See photos for condition details. Hardcover, interior cloth shows fading, particularly on the front, where apparently a book sat for a very long time, so the surrounding cloth faded. There's also some fading on the backside as well, mainly along the edges and spine. The top edge of gilt is chipping and eaten away near the spine area and there is an ink spot on the exterior page long edge. The internal binding is good, no hinge issues. Pages are toned due to age but are free of any handwriting, underlining, or any other markings. Both end pages and pastedowns show a lot of foxing spots along with a few small stains. A good copy for reference purposes that has no library markings or previous owner notes.…

1st Edition. 348 pp. 8vo. 9-5/16" x 5-7/8" "Girard was a French and naturalized American, philanthropist and banker. He personally saved the U.S. government from financial collapse during the War of 1812, and became one of the wealthiest people in America, estimated to have been the fourth richest American of all time, based on the ratio of his fortune to contemporary GDP. Childless, he devoted much of his fortune to philanthropy, particularly the education and welfare of orphans. He bequeathed nearly his entire fortune to charitable and municipal institutions of Philadelphia and New Orleans, including an endowment for establishing a boarding school for "poor, male, white orphans" in Philadelphia, primarily those who were the children of coal miners, which opened as the Girard College in 1848. Girard's will was contested by his family in France but was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in a landmark case, Vidal et al. vs Girard's Executors, 43 U.S. 127."
