Sobre este artículo
Chicago: Biographical Publishing Company, 1885. First edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Quarto, 834 pages, bottom marginal tears to pages 513-522 (which had special interest to the prior owner), curios brown, powdery stains to some central pages, original covers, rebacked in 1959 with brown buckram with the original spine laid down. Surprisingly Rare.
[ Buck 845 - citing only 1 location ] An excellent "mug book". Chock-a-block with portraits - including several women!! This work has been reprinted in this modern era, but the reprints do not do justice to these portraits of ancestors. Note: the first white settler in this county was a physician - but he had no one to dose! Includes a full-page lithograph portrait of Wa-bo-kies-shiek, or White Cloud, the Prophet of the Winnebagoes: the portrait faces his biography.

Sobre Thomas J. Joyce And Company
Joyce And Company has been in business as a professional rare bookseller and appraiser since 1975. Owner Thomas Joyce was the regular book appraiser on Home & Garden TV\'s \"The Appraisal Fair\\\" program, on international broadcasts. Thomas Joyce was the co-discoverer of George Washington's personal copy of William Leybourn's 1679 edition of THE COMPLEAT SURVEYOR, from which young Washington learned some of his surveying skills at age 16. The book had vanished for nearly a century until its re-discovery in 2017. It is now back at Mt. Vernon.
