Item Description
A historic first edition, five volume collection of John Marshall's "Life of Washington" (1805-1807), published in Philadelphia by C.P. Wayne, which presents the earliest biographical look into the life of President George Washington, America's first president, by one of Washington's most notable peers and contemporaries of the time, the legendary Supreme Court Justice John Marshall. This incredibly rare collection spans five volumes, and provides an intimate and thoroughly detailed view of the life of Washington through the lenses of one of the most celebrated judicial figures in American history, who served in the revolutionary war, as well as serving in various influential diplomatic roles throughout multiple presidential administrations during the founding and birth of the nation. A fascinating and increasingly rare collection of American history.

Evidence of toning,fading, and moisture exposure to the paper, as well as a few handwritten signatures across the collection, presumably a provenance listing. The integrity of the binding and pages remain intact, and these books can continue to be enjoyed and read for years to come.
