Publisher: Beers,

Date of Publication: 1903.

Physical Description: xviii, 1524 p. plates, ports. 29 x 23 cm.

Notes: Prepared in part by John F. Meginness. cf. Pref.; " In nearly every instance the material composing the sketches was gathered from those immediately interested, and then submitted in type-written form for correction and revision. The volume, which is one of generous amplitude, is placed in the hands of the public with the belief that it will be found a valuable addition to the library, as well as an invaluable contribution to the historical literature of the State of Pennsylvania... That the public is entitled to the privileges afforded by a work of this nature needs no assertion at our hands; for one of our greatest Americans has said that the history of any country resolves itself into the biographies of its stout, earnest and representative citizens. This medium, then, serves more than a single purpose; while it perpetuates biography and family genealogy, it records history, much of which would be preserved in no other way. "; Rare book copy bound in half leather and brown leather with marlbled end papers..
