The Diary Of Sidney George Fisher Covering The Years 1834-18

The Diary Of Sidney George Fisher Covering The Years 1834-18

A Philadelphia Perspective

BY SIDNEY GEORGE FISHER

Brief Description:
SECONDHAND COPY. Margaret Bacon's volume. Not by any means pristine, but a good copy of a 1967 book , that looks like a 1767 book. Binding very slightly cracked. Sidney George Fisher was no Quaker, saying among other things that slavery was evil but necessary... however he was a great diarist and candidly and amusingly commenting on matters political topical and personal from the viewpoint of a rich male who never had to work because of his inherited money. These years are the ones spent in or near Philadelphia.

Historical society of Pennsylvania 1967 625 PP. Cloth

$60.00 USED - availability checked May 23rd 3:40am EDT
