James Fenimore Cooper, 1846
COOPER, James Fenimore (1789-1851). The Redskins; or Indian and Ingin: being the Conclusion of the Littlepage Manuscripts. New York: Burgess, Stringer, & Company, 1846.
First American edition, in original printed wrappers. This is the conclusion of Cooper's Littlepage Manuscripts trilogy. The wrappers correspond most closely to BAL's states A and E respectively, but with an ampersand in the imprint in place of "and;" BAL states there is no known priority and that "the wrappers may have been printed simultaneously." BAL 3922.
Two volumes, 12mo (198 x 120mm). 2pp. ads at end of vol 1 (some foxing). Original printed russet wrappers (spines repaired, a few chips and stains); modern chemise and slipcase. Provenance: Henry M. Fuller (signatures on wrappers) – Catherine A. Slosson (signatures on titles) – William W. Gay (armorial bookplates on inner wrappers).
