Sobre este artículo
New Haven, CT: Yale University Press. Very Good. 1929. Hardcover. xviii, 328pp. portrait frontis; 8vo; blue cloth, spine lettered in gilt; map endpapers; illustrations. There is an abrasion to the bottom of page 303, mostly in the margin but affecting two words of text, from a post-it note used to mark the page, related to the contents of the letter below. Otherwise, and with the additional description below, a very good, clean copy. EX-PACIFIC UNION CLUB LIBRARY, San Francisco, with their bookplate on front pastedown, and only small call numbers on copyright page in pencil, and one in ink. No other library treatments. The library tended to add other related material to their books, in this case what appears to be a contemporary clipping of a review of the book tipped-in on half-title. And: a four page handwritten letter on letterhead of The University Club of New York, referencing page 303 of Around the Horn, regarding the application for a charter for The University of California, from Lyman's son Chester W. Lyman to, "Dear Will (Crocker?), I have got all the facts I want from a history of the University of CA. It appears that the proposed five trustees mentioned in the . . . p. 303 of 'Around the Horn' did apply for a charter . . ." There is also a transcription of the letter with a few words undeciphered on yellow legal note paper, by the previous owner of the book. .
