Exploits and Triumphs, in Europe, of Paul Morphy, The Chess Champion

Including an historical account of clubs, biographical sketches of famous players, and various information and anecdote relating to the noble game of chess. By Paul Morphy's late secretary. Illustrated with ten portraits on wood. D. Appleton and Company, 1859

This historically important book in Chess history is from a Maine estate and is in near fine condition! The only flaw I see is a chip off of the spine which you can see in the picture. The previous owner's name is written in the front with a few other very small scribbles. The binding is tight, the pages have little to no foxing and there is no moldy odor to this book. A beautiful copy for a lucky collector.
