Description
[McAfee, Robert B.]: HISTORY OF THE LATE WAR IN THE WESTERN COUNTRY. Lexington. 1816. viii, 534 pp., [2] pp. 8vo. Full period sheep, title on label in gilt, hinges and edges scuffed and rubbed, former owner bookplate to pastedown, ink notations to front blanks and a few other markings to contents, contents generally clean though with some age-tone and a few small stains, Very Good. *********************************************** Thomson views this book highly: "It is the original authority from which later writers borrowed freely...all the incidents of the War of 1812 in Ohio and the Northwest Territory are given with great minutiae of detail." According to AMERICAN IMPRINTS INVENTORY, the book was written by McAfee and revised by James Buchanan. One of the most extensive products of the Kentucky press to that time, and one of the longest prose works, outside of laws, of that early period. A most important historical source. HOWES M9, "aa."
