Humboldt, NE: The Enterprise, 1903. Hardcover. 8vo. Rebound in blue cloth. 194pp. Illustrations. Errata slip tipped to front pastedown. Very good. Binding slightly edgeworn. Item #30776

Clean and attractive first edition of this scarce, slim Civil War regimental. Due to a binder's error, one small page gathering (pp. 31-34) appears upside down -- an error we've encountered in other copies of this title. Phineas O. Avery (born 1838) served with Company I of this regiment from September 1861 to November 1864, removing to Nebraska afterward to farm and raise cattle. Extremely uncommon and normally only encountered in glorified photocopy form. BROADFOOT I-I 22. NEVINS I, 53.
