Boston.: T.R.B. Mussey & Co., 1854. First edition. 12mo. 214 pp. From the author's foreword: "If any friend of mine, who, knowing me, knows that I am no partisan, will intrust himself to my guidance, I will take him with me in this book to the south, and we will together look at the things which happen to meet us, receive the impressions which they may naturally make..." Gilt-stamped title on spine, blindstamped decorated plum cloth. Cloth faded to brownish, some edgewear, but otherwise a very good copy.
