The Life of Stephen A. Douglas. By James W. Sheahan and printed in New York City by Harper and Brothers. 1860. [11] + 528 + [8] pp. 7.75” x 5.25”. 8vo. Hardcover full cloth.

In fair condition, with tears and losses to binding down spine. Some shakiness and staring around front hinge. Some minor wear around center of text block. Light markings, along with original ownership inscription. Includes frontispiece portrait of Douglas. General age-related toning to pages, along with periodic foxing and wear. Please see photographs and ask any questions prior to purchasing.

A scarce piece produced during Douglas’ 1860 presidential run as the Democratic nominee, which he ultimately lost to Abraham Lincoln. A great candidate for research and restoration.
