Dublin: Wilkinson & Courtney, 1809. Roger Lamb (1756-1830), a British soldier, provided one of the more important eye-witness accounts of the American Revolution. This is an attractive, Near Fine copy of an unknown facsimile edition. Nicely bound in full leather, with decorative gilt stamping, three raised bands on the spine, marbled endpapers, with all page ends in gilt. There is no modern publisher or date, but the book has been reprinted by several publishers, including Arno/NY Times and Ayer Company, as well as the print-on-demand sources. Clean, fresh text; xxiv, 438 pages. Mild rubbing to corners and foot of the spine. The spine and top edge have faded a bit. Whatever this is, it is a nice addition.. Facsimile Edition. Full-Leather. Near Fine/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
