About this ebook
Complete and unabridged, with 59 full-page plates by Winslow Homer, George Inness and Edward Mitchell Bannister. A Virginia lawyer of no family climbs into Jefferson's circle and then into Burr's conspiracy, and the ambition costs him everything he married for. Mary Johnston wrote the early republic from the state papers and gave Lewis Rand the shape of a tragedy rather than a career. This edition adds fifty-nine plates of painting, among them works by Albert Bierstadt, George Inness and Martin Johnson Heade, with one restored and coloured illustration in the text.
