Alephoe Books/The Poetry Mission, New York, 2000. Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. SIGNED FIRST EDITION book is fine, bound in vibrant red cloth over boards with a fine blind stamp in the front of the cover. Priced(24.95) jacket is very good with a neatly closed tear by the fold. The paste downs and free end papers are detailed maps of the empire state. Book is signed and dated by the author on the half title page. Just as essential to Theodore Roosevelt's accession to the Presidency as his charge up San Juan Hill was his election as Governor of New York four months later. A defeat would have seriously set back and perhaps even destroyed his chances to gain the White House, Yet until A Rough Ride To Albany, no book has devoted itself primarily to describing taht hard fought uphill campaign. This important book is a fine collectible to collectors of historical and presidential literature. Signed by Author

First edition First printing book is fine with a fine un-priced dust jacket. Book is unmarked and unread " The book lays out new territory, thanks to Sweeting's hard digging, boldness, and eye for underground connections. Treating literar4y works, buildings, gardens, and manners as shape-shifting of each other, he ingeniously plots the aesthetics of gentility in antebellum America". This study of a unique coalescence of literature, architecture, and gardening illuminates the widely held belief that efforts to reform the world began at home, that beautiful and clean houses produced morally beautiful and spiritually clean people.
