1862 — Book Signed & Owned by Brigham Young — SIGNED TWICE!

Spence, James. The American Union; Its Effect On National Character and Policy, with an Inquiry into Secession as a Constitutional Right, and The Causes of the Disruption.

Fourth and Revised Edition. Richard Bentley, New Burlington Street, London, 1862. 391 pages. Green cloth; solid binding; worn but still pretty nice.

Signed inside the front cover by Brigham Young (see our photograph).

Someone wrote “Pres. Brigham Young” on three other pages (see our photographs). The handwriting is different so perhaps it was a secretary or clerk or someone else who wrote that in the book multiple times. Lightly in pencil, inside the front cover is also the word “Cannon” written once.

This book by itself is found ranging from $50 to $200, but this one is certainly worth much more than those!
