New York: Printed for the Author, 1904. Hardcover. Very Good. First edition. Royal octavo. 636pp. Publisher's blue-green cloth gilt. Fold out map. Chipping at the spine ends, but a sound good or better copy, and an interesting one. Contains three bookplates, several clippings about Harlem tipped-in, a legal judgment for a property in Harlem, two advertisements for this book from the author (one corrected by hand, presumably by the author) and of most interest, a Printed Letter Signed by the dedicatee of the book, Edgar Ketchum to John Townsend (one of the three bookplates), introducing Townsend to his friend Riker in 1877, and soliciting him to subscribe to the book. Ketchum was a prominent attorney and abolitionist, from Harlem. Those resentful of his abolitionist stance attempted to burn his house during the Draft Riots. Townsend was most likely John P. Townsend, a civilly prominent New York financier who also wrote on economics. *Howes* R297.
