Description: Lives of the Presidents with Portraits by Lee and Shepard | 1889 From Washington to Cleveland, with new portraits. A complete series of short biographies of the Presidents in one volume. All are carefully prepared and the main events of each administration are historically correct. Published by Lee and Shepard, The American Booksellers. The inside front cover has the inscription "David O Thomas Xmas 1889" from Uncle George.Based on my research, it appears this book was released in September 1889 and is a first edition. However, the first page with copyright, publisher, etc. is missing. Also, pages 403-404 and 415-418 related to Franklin Pierce and James Buchanan have been removed. George Washington's portrait is loose, but all others are intact. Text unmarked. Covers show some edge wear with rubbing/scuffing. Chipping on spine ages. Front hinge is cracked but binding is still intact. Please review the photos and message me with any questions. A rare opportunity to own a unique piece of U.S. American history. Packed with care, insured and shipped complimentary via USPS Priority.
