Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. [Post Revolution Maryland] Interesting provenance: From the private library of renowned historian, Philip D. Morgan. Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Jacket sunned. Owner's name on title page, else unmarked. "Kept between 1792 and 1804, Faris' diary brings to life all the color and energy of his vibrant community, giving us a view of late 18th century Annapolis unavailable from any other source. You will discover who these people were and follow the course of their lives: their births, marriages, illnesses, deaths, and burials. One can also enter the mind of an 18th century master craftsman, witness the integrity and honesty of business conducted face to face, the hours spent creating intricate clocks and watches, the creation of striking silver pieces. The annotated diary also provides an abundance of genealogical information." - The Maryland Historical Society From the professional library of Dr. Philip D. Morgan, a professor of History at Johns Hopkins University. Morgan specializes in the African-American experience, the history of slavery, the early Caribbean, and the study of the early Atlantic world. Morgan is the author of more than 14 books on Colonial America and African American history. He has won both the Bancroft Prize and the Frederick Douglass Prize for his book Slave Counterpoint: Black Culture in the Eighteenth-Century Chesapeake and Lowcountry (1998).
