Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Annapolis, Maryland:: Naval Institute Press, 1989. A bright, clean, square, tight copy. Sharp corners. Inner hinges are perfect. No owner's name or bookplate. No remainder mark. Pages are fresh and crisp -- probably never read. No underlining. No highlighting. No margin notes. This edition is a reprint of the 1843 original newly enhanced with a introduction & fascinating notes by William S. Dudley, plus an index. This is the true story of sailor Ned Myers as told to James Fenimore Cooper. Best known for his many novels, Cooper could write with great authenticity about the sea having spent a year as a common seaman on the merchant ship Sterling in 1806-07. A volume from the Naval Institute Press CLASSICS OF NAVAL LITERATURE series. Handsomely bound in the original blue cloth, lettered in shiny gold over dark blue panels on the spine and front cover. Complete with the blue silk ribbon marker sewn into the headband. A sample from the lively text: "I walked over the ground where the explosion took place. It was a dreadful sight; the dead being so mutilated that it was scarcely possible to tell their colour. I saw gun-barrels bent nearly double. I think we saw Sir Roger Sheafe, the British General, galloping across the field, by himself, a few minutes before the explosion. At all events, we saw a mounted officer, and fired at him. He galloped up to the government-house, dismounted, went in, remained a short time, and then galloped out of town.". First Naval Institute Press Edition. Hardcover. Fine condition./No jacket, probably as issued. 8vo. xix, 290pp.…

Shopbeschreibung

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.…
