Seller: Nicholas D. Riccio Rare Books & Prints

Title: A Journal of Civilization (Volume 9 January 7, 1865-December 30, 1865)
Author: Harper’s Weekly
Seller: Nicholas D. Riccio Rare Books & Prints (United States)
Description: Folio, cloth, profusely illustrated with wood engravings. Partially disbound, front cover and preliminary pages detached, spine is missing, first page of May 20, 1865 has tear in the middle of page, some aging, but internally clean. Harper's Weekly ran for 59 years (1857-1916). It featured illustrations from some of the most prominent artists of that time, including Thomas Nast, Winslow Homer, and Livingston Hopkins. The present volume is probably one of the most important of the series, since it covers the end of the Civil War and the Lincoln assassination. Coverage of the Lincoln assassination begins in the April 29th issue, which starts with an engraving of John Wilkes Booth on the front page. In the pages that follow, there are illustrations of the assassination and Booth fleeing. One of the illustrations in this issue is done by Thomas Nast. In the next issue (May 6, 1865) is a front page illustration, after a photograph by Mathew Brady, of Lincoln with his son. Extra postage required.
