REMINISCENCES AND ANECDOTES OF DANIEL WEBSTER [WITH AUTOGRAPHED LETTER SIGNED] by (Webster, Daniel) Harvey, Peter - 1877

Boston: Little, Brown, and Company, 1877. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good or better copy with some light edge-wear, minor rubbing to boards and leather spine. Binding is tight and solid. Nice copy with the tipped-in letter.. First Edition. Hardcover. 8vo. 3/4 red leather, with marbled boards & endpapers, top edge gilt. Tipped-in is an AUTOGRAPHED LETTER SIGNED by Webster. The folded letter has split into two, and the autographed half is loose now. Dated March 1st, 1842, when he was Secretary of State under President Tyler. The letter is boldly signed by Webster; however, we think the rest of the letter may be in someone else's hand (a secretary perhaps). Underneath the signature there is some additional writing in a different ink which was likely added later, perhaps as an annotation; and there is another annotation in the upper left corner of the letter which also may be someone else's writing. Still a beautifully bound edition of this book about Webster, containing his autograph.
