Revolutionary War History — A compelling collection of firsthand journals documenting Benedict Arnold’s extraordinary 1775 expedition through the Maine wilderness toward Quebec.
Compiled and annotated by acclaimed historical author Kenneth Roberts, this substantial volume brings together the surviving accounts of Arnold, Aaron Burr, Henry Dearborn, Return J. Meigs, John Joseph Henry, and other members of the expedition. An important primary-source account of one of the American Revolution’s most grueling military campaigns.
Stated First Edition, published by Doubleday, Doran & Company in 1938. Hardcover in the original illustrated dust jacket. Includes portrait frontispiece, illustrated map endpapers, and 657 pages with index.
Wonderful vintage condition. The reddish-brown cloth binding remains exceptionally clean and handsome, with bright spine lettering and a strong overall presentation. Pages are clean and the binding is secure. The original dust jacket displays beautifully, with mild age toning, light edge wear, and small areas of wear consistent with its age. Original copper-colored top stain remains vivid. A small penciled notation appears on the half-title page. Please review all photographs closely for the exact condition.
A particularly attractive first-edition copy for collectors of Revolutionary War history, Benedict Arnold, early American military expeditions, and Kenneth Roberts.
