Seller's Description:
New. 0844409774. Cover is wraps. Pages are clean tight; this is a NEW book, still in the publisher's shrinkwrap. Lavishly illustrated with 137 color pictures. "The most significant acquisition of Americana by the Library of Congress in this century, the 10, 000 items assembled by the Marian Carson family of Philadelphia contain vast amounts of historical raw material--manuscripts, early photographs, prints, drawings, watercolors, maps, architectural drawings, music books, broadsides, sheets music covers, children's games, printed ephemera, and more--from the Colonial era through the 1876 Centennial celebration. In essays illustrated with color photographs of 125 of the documents, noted historian Robert V. Remini and Library of Congress specialists show how the largely unplumbed Carson Collection enriches our view of early American life and culture, and may even eventually change our present understanding of the nation's ever-evolving story".; Color Illustrations; 9 x 9; x, 124 pages.
