On Thomas Jefferson... Loss of the frigate Philadelphia...

Item # 713015
April 03, 1804
WINDSOR FEDERAL GAZETTE, Vermont, April 3, 1804  Page 2 has over a full column headed:  "Mr. Jefferson's 'Genuine' Aversion To Power". It is introduced with: "The late Dr. Priestley in a very ill-judged dedication of a work to Mr. Jefferson, went out of his way to pick up & present him the following compliment...".
Page 3 has a report headed: "Loss Of the Frigate Philadelphia" during the First Barbary War, the details from a letter of an officer on board at Tripoli. The internet has much on the capture & destruction of this frigate.
Four pages, never bound nor trimmed, very nice condition.

A quite scarce title as it existed from just 1801 thru 1804. Aside from a recent purchase we have not had any issues of this title to offer in our 50+ years.

Item from our most recent catalog - #367 - released for June, 2026
