"The Life of George Washington" by Washington Irving - G.P. Putnam's Sons, The Knickerbocker Press, 1889 limited edition of 300 copies, this being no 84, signed by publisher - 30cmx20cm - condition: in original bindings, worn, with spine covers detached, internally in good condition with all plates present, signed by printed, some loose leaves, complete. Rare set
In 1855, he produced Wolfert's Roost, a collection of stories and essays that he had written for The Knickerbocker and other publications,[90] and he began publishing a biography of his namesake George Washington which he expected to be his masterpiece. Five volumes of the biography were published between 1855 and 1859.[91]
Irving traveled regularly to Mount Vernon and Washington, D.C., for his research, and struck up friendships with Presidents Millard Fillmore and Franklin Pierce.[90] He was elected an Associate Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1855.[92] He was hired as an executor of John Jacob Astor's estate in 1848 and appointed by Astor's will as first chairman of the Astor Library, a forerunner to the New York Public Library.[93]
Irving continued to socialize and keep up with his correspondence well into his seventies, and his fame and popularity continued to soar. "I don't believe that any man, in any country, has ever had a more affectionate admiration for him than that given to you in America", wrote Senator William C. Preston in a letter to Irving. "I believe that we have had but one man who is so much in the popular heart".[94] By 1859, author Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr. noted that Sunnyside had become "next to Mount Vernon, the best known and most cherished of all the dwellings in our land

查看翻译I purchased the book on November 26. The seller never sent the book despite Catawiki tried to contact him. Just the worst seller I have ever dealt with. I am not used to write bad reviews, but this...
查看翻译卖家hui'fu
The book had been sent to you. Unfortunately, some tracking numbers had an error this week with postnl. I never received a message from you or catawiki until yesterday when it was stated that the transaction was cancelled, while never being notified by either you or catawiki beforehand. Since the book has been shipped to you, and you received an unilateral refund by catawiki, we'll have to arrange a shipment back to me or another payment. Sorry for the confusion.
Lousy salesman. One of the books was misdescribed. He said it had the illustrations restored; in reality they were in pieces. Shipping totally abusive. he charges double for a single package.
查看翻译Perfetto
查看翻译well packed and arrived fast
