Sobre este artículo
1851 hardcover from Silas Andrus. Condition is Very Good. Black blindstamped cloth shows minimal wear but some small splits at base of spine starting. This does not compromise integrity of binding which remains sound. Endpapers have pencil note of prior bookseller, pencil note on last page, occasional foxing and stains throughout, and bookseller stamp of "Perry & Erety, Philadelphia." Paginates: blank, (1)-104, blank. Many engravings in text. Complete as issued. Small format. Overall better condition than usually seen. This edition: OCLC: 2665946. Please see images of the book you will receive. Notes: Bibliographically this book is difficult so bear with me. James Fenimore Cooper wrote "The Spy, A Tale of the Neutral Ground" in 1821; in 1828 H. L. Barnum wrote a biography of Enoch Crosby titled "The Spy Unmasked; Or, Memoirs of Enoch Crosby, Alias Harvey Birch, The Hero of Mr. Cooper's Tale of the Neutral Ground." In 1831 a juvenile version of this story was published anonymously with most likely author being copyright holder A. H. Maltby, which is what we have here. The Maltby version was issued by numerous publishers and pirates under various titles for decades creating confusion for dealers and collectors. More Notes: Turns out Enoch Crosby is a real person but Cooper denied he had ever heard of him (see OCLC: 58670444). I am offering 3 different editions of the juvenile version and one of the Barnum. Feel free to inquire.
