Signed in pencil on the first free end page. Garfield’s 2.5 x 1.5 personal bookplate “Inter Folia Fructus Library of James A. Garfield” is affixed inside the front cover. In very good condition, with toning and foxing to signed page as well as inside pages and both pastedowns, worn leather covers, edges, and spine, with boards and spine having been professionally restored to very good condition.

Some twenty years ago, several dozen of his books were de-accessioned from his personal library.
