Harper's Monthly Bound, Vol 4 1852
Harper’s Monthly is the oldest and most prestigious serial magazine in the USA. It was founded in 1851 and continues to this day as Harper Collins. This volume is the fourth of their bound editions, and features magazines from December of 1851, to May of 1852. A range which spans some of the earliest works published by this legendary magazine. Harper’s was also responsible for the publication of Moby Dick, in November of 1851. The earliest issue in this volume is a mere month later. Harper’s is also most famous for covering the American Civil War.
The book itself is intact and in good condition, though the spine shows wear and is pealing away. The illustrations inside are absolutely beautiful and display a wonderful look into the time period pre-dating the American Civil War.
Some of the topic in this book may be found to be incredibly racist and/or offensive, and is a product of the time it was created in.
