New York: Fords, Howard, & Hulbert, 1880. Albion Tourgee (1838-1905), a major figure of the Reconstruction following the American Civil War, argued on the losing side of the notorious Supreme Court case "Plessy v. Ferguson." History now recognizes him to have been on the right side, morally. A Radical Republican, his popular novels were told with sympathy toward the African-American experience. This is a Near Fine copy of the First Edition. Brown cloth binding with blindstamed design (on both fron & back covers); gilt lettering on the spine. Clean and fresh text; supple and quite readable. 521 pages with 4 pages of publisher's adverts in the back; First State erratum slip is present. Very small bookstore stamp on the front paste-down, and a small inkspot on the rear panel, else very close to Fine. No dustjacket. All and all, a very nice book by a major figure of American legal and political history. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. First Edition.. Hard Cover. Near Fine/No Jacket.
