Charles A. Beard
330pp.; 21.9 x 15.6 cm. Brown cloth boards stamped in gold on front and spine.
Published New York: The Macmillan Company, 1939
Part of Money, Politics, & America
From the library of A. David Moody
A survey of economic interests at the time of the declaration of independence, including studies of each of those members of the Constitutional Convention, hand-numbered in ink in the margin in this copy, totalling 51. Reissue (1935) with a new introduction, third reprint (Pound himself had a copy of the second reprint, see Tim Redman’s cataloguing of Pound’s Library). A very good copy save for the loss of a certain amount of cloth to the spine.
