Washington: M. St. Clair Clarke and Peter Force, 1844. First Edition. Hardcover. Good. Peter Force, born 1790, died 1868, was a printer, amateur historian, eventual mayor of Washington, and an inveterate document collector. The crowning achievement of his profession life was to bring out a lengthy series he dubbed the American Archives, comprising more than 20 folio-sized volumes of two-columned texts, all original documents, of American history from the early colonial period through the Congress of 1789, including private correspondence, legislative records, personal communications, and government business. It took an Act of Congress to enable and supervise the work. Six volumes in this Series Four were published from 1837 to 1846, and then several more volumes in the Fifth Series were published by 1853, all covered the three years prior to American Independence. Political infighting preventing the completion of his monumental project. This volume is a sturdy, tightly bound, internally clean hardcover copy, quite unusual in the trade, with unbruised tips, neat and tidy paste-downs; ink-stamps at title page, recto, else no ex-library signs. Massively heavy, oversized volume. Rebound in black cloth, with light dust soiling thereto, but with new endpapers, and remarkably clean and unmarked of interior. Predictable age-toning to text, with some smudges, light foxing to endpapers; some waviness to text, but neither mildew nor odor. Overall, a very handsomely produced, good-looking volume. "Consisting of a collection of authentick records, state papers, debates, and letters and other notices of publick affairs, the whole forming a documentary history of the origin and progress of the North American colonies; of the causes and accomplishment of the American Revolution; and of the constitution of government for the United States, to the final ratification thereof." cxi + 1759 pp., including index. Additional postage may be required for oversize or especially heavy volumes, and for sets.
