Memorial Address on the Life and Character of Abraham Lincoln…

8vo, original dark brown pebbled and blindstamped cloth, front cover decoratively lettered in gilt, steel engraved frontispiece portrait of Lincoln, 69 pp. Binding with some edge wear, and chipping to spine, missing about two inches of lower spine, hinges a little weak, but still firm, ends and corners bumped, a little soiling, pencil signature of previous owner; else very good. George Bancroft, who at one time was Secretary of the Navy, deliverd this memorial address to both houses of Congress on February 12, 1866. This pamphlet was also published in New York, but that issue lacked the portrait. Sabin 3132
