[17.4 cm.] Small stamp of Essex Institute, Salem, Mass., on front cover. Clean separation along spine below lower staple (about three centimeters deep), else a nice copy. FIRST EDITION. Betsy Dowdy was a teen who reputedly rode over fifty miles one cold night in December, 1775, to alert local patriot militia that they were needed to resist British advances near Norfolk, Virginia. The volunteers missed the fight at Great Bridge, dubbed the second battle of Bunker Hill, but Dowdy's gallantry was long celebrated.
