"Poems On Slavery" No edition stated, but date at base of title page is 1842, and the same date is on the copyright. page- again 1842, with no other printings indicated.

7 inches tall, 4.5 wide, with pages numbered by section, but over 400 pages.

CONDITION
Condition of the Book is Fair-
the main flaw is that the cover boards are present but both are detached, and the cover of the spine is gone
spine is tight and no loose pages
former owner's bookplate on first blank endpage, and former owner's name writ atop "Poems On Slavery" title page, but no other writing inside
almost no foxing at all,
no dogeared pages,
no handling marks,
and excellent candidate for a rebinding
I think I've covered it all, but
all questions are welcome.
