Letters of John Paul Jones (Classic Reprint)

Angebote / Angebote:

Excerpt from Letters of John Paul Jones It is due to the generosity of Mr. W. K. Bixby that The Bibliophile Society is permitted to issue for its members this little volume of letters written by John Paul Jones while in our country's service during the American Revolution. The original letters, which are now almost priceless relics of that period, form a part of Mr. Bixby's private collection. The entire cost of issuing this volume (one copy of which is printed for each member) has been paid from the surplus fund in the Society's treasury remaining over from last year. There is, therefore, no charge for the work. The grateful acknowledgments of the Council are due to General Porter and Mr. Sanborn for their introductory remarks, which are free-will contributions.
