Savannah: printed & published by Seymour & Williams, 1811. 2 volumes. First edition. 8vo.; viii, 376pp.; vii, 424pp. Bookplate on front pastedown of both volumes; small bookseller's sticker on front pastedown of vol. 2. 3/4 leather & marbled boards; raised bands & gilt decorations on spines. Front hinges of both volumes are tender, but a very good set overall.

Volume I covers 1584 to the revolution and volume II contines through the revolution to 1784. McCall (1767-1824) planned to continue it but records and sources were so few and he suffered from "a portion of disease and decripitude [sic], almost without a parrallel in the history of human life" [see preface & Dict. of Ga. Biog.] No more volumes appeared. This set bears the bookplates of the Reverend James Stacy, Oglethorpe University alumnus and Presbyterian minister of Newman, Ga. DeRenne I, p. 344. Georgiana #21: "... a landmark in the development of Georgia literature. Howes M-33. Servies: 880. " Streeter 1161: " A fundamental Georgia history and the chief source on the border wars with the Creeks and Cherokees. This is one of the rarest of state histories."
