Watkins moved to Liberty from Kentucky in 1830, establishing a farm there, and in the mid-1850s built the first woolen factory west of St. Louis. This copy appears to be a proof, with several editing marks in pencil. Unrecorded on OCLC. Corners chipped, some rubbing and soiling, laid down on archival paper; a good example. (#5045).
