About This Item
Thirteenth Regimental Association. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1910. First Edition. Hardcover. RARE - A Former Trinity College (Vermont) Library copy, rebound in green buckram with gilt titles on spine. Several foldout pages have split along the fold but are present. Typical library stamps and pocket remain. This is an association copy with presentation stamp and names on second free endpaper, addressed to Charles St. Piere from Herman W. Allen, a former Private in Company A of the 13th Vermont Regiment from 1862-63, and later a First Lieutenant in the Vermont Militia from 1864-68, then Inspector for Rifle Practice on staff of Governor Wodbury at the rank of Colonel from 1894-96. Allen then became a Vermont State Senator, serving from 1896-98 and was a delegate to the GOP Convention in 1904. This copy is clean and tightly bound (modern library glued rebinding) and is a candidate for a quality rebind in calf and cloth (which the seller, also a binder, can provide at an additional cost) .
