Rare- 1857 First Edition, Eminent Americans Comprising Brief Biographies of 330 Distinguished Persons by Benson J. Lossing. This book is illustrated with over 100 fine portraits by Lossing and Barritt. I adore this book so much… it has the most amazing decorative cover and spine!! I love all of the beautiful detailing… the gold gilt horse on the front! It’s too good! If you are a history buff or love to collect history books… this is the one for you! I almost kept this… It is somewhat of a larger book and overall it is in great condition for its age!
