by:

Hardcover. Boston, Wright & Potter Printing Co. State Printers, 1st, 1898, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Hardcover, blue cloth with gilt lettering on spine, 555 pages. Appendix, indexed, b&w illustrations. Written between 1630 and 1650 and relating the founding of Plymouth Colony and the lives of the colonists from 1621 to 1647, the manuscript was none the less not published until 1898, because the British troops removed it from Boston in 1775 and it was kept in the library of the Bishop of London, where it was re-discovered in 1855 and finally returned to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in 1897. Included are an Appendix and Index and numerous copies of the manuscript pages as well as pictures of persons relevant to the History. Hinges partially cracked, minor cover soil.
