Historical Society VII - June, 1879 - No. 6
Softcover : Good for the age and constructionThese pamphlets were made with covers that were biggerthan the pages inside. As a result, you almost always findthe covers / wraps to have chipped edges. If you find a copy without chipped edges, and the covers are the exact size of the pages inside - that means someone trimmed off the edges of the covers.This particular issue is \"uncut\".
The tops and some of the sides of the pages are still intactfrom
theprinter - meaning this copy has never been read. 47 pages, with a page of ads in the class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The Southern Historical Society Papershave been reprinted many times.

To try and be honest about the content,
I note \"Complete articles\" vs \"Parts\" of larger articles. the Wikipedia Entry for \"Southern Historical Society
The Southern Historical Society was an American organization founded to preserve archival materials related to the government of the Confederate States of America and to document the history of the American Civil War.[Dabney H. Maury founded the Southern Historical Society on April 15, 1869, in New Orleans. Maury and the eight other founding members donated family papers, books, and artifacts to the society to form its initial collection. Its first publication began in 1876 and continued until 1959. The society was officially organized on May 1, 1869; signatories included Braxton Bragg, J. E. Austin, Dabney H. Maury, B. M. Harrod, Simon Bolivar Buckner, S. H. Buck, A. L. Stuart, George Norton, and C. L. C. Dupuy.The society\'s objective was \"to collect reliable data of the workings of the late Confederate Government, and the battles, sieges, and exploits of the war.\" Other targeted Confederate materials for the archive included newspapers, speeches, literary and medical journals, journals, maps, agricultural and manufacturing reports, geological reports, weather reports, sermons, poetry, songs and ballads, mining operation records, and foreign relations. The society also wanted to document the names and details of wounded soldiers, mortality records, and exchanges of prisoners of war.For historians today, the Southern Papers serve as a storehouse of information concerning the Confederacy. Second, only to the War of the Rebellion records, the Papers represent the largest collection of battle accounts, unit rosters, and other primary material about the southern armies during the Civil War.\"Thank you for supporting independent booksellers !
