Description: What an unusual find: On a page following the title page the author writes " Classmates: The class of 1862 never had any class organization while in college, and has had no meeting, organization, secretary, or records since graduation.......Believing it would be a pleasure to us who are living to know in detail the lives of our classmates, I undertook the labor of collecting the necessary information, and, as the result of much time, more patience, and nearly four hundred letters and communications, I am able to present to you this volume, which, I hope, may be pleasant reading to all......" How bout that? The Title page reads 'Dartmouth College Sketches of the Class of 1862'. On the front cover(in bright gilt lettering) it reads 'Class of 1862 Dartmouth College 1858-1884'. This book was published in 1884(1884 on the title page and dated at the bottom of the author's Classmates page quoted from above).It is a First Edition(NAP). Perhaps the only edition----again there are no other copies I could find from any year. Written by Horace Stuart Cummings. Published by by H.I. Rothrock, Printer, 1427 F Street, N.W. , Washington, D.C. 120 pages. All three page edges are red. I consider the price extremely reasonable given the rarity(as in one-of-a-kind), the condition and the content.
