Riley, James An Authentic Narrative of the Loss of the American Brig Commerce, Wrecked on the Western Shore of Africa... Hartford Author Published 1817 First Edition Full-Leather Very good in original leather boards, with leather spine label reading "Capt. Riley's/Narrative" in gilt. Fairly minor dampstaining at lower corner and foredge of page block, some foxing throughout. All engravings are present, rear map of Africa is missing. Riley and his crew were captured by Arab pirates and made slaves until ultimately freed. His ordeal lasted less than 2 years, but was a part of the American national culture because the book was so heavily reprinted. Abraham Lincoln cited this book as a source for his attitudes on slavery. Price:
