19380058Cambridge (MA), Houghton Mifflin Co. / Riverside Press, 1938. First edition of Georges Haynes' classic. Two octavo volumes, 220 x 150 mm each.

Hardcover, original editor's red cloth, with author's name in gold and title within a black lozenge on spine. Small paper of the "Livraria Agir Editôra", a Rio de Janeiro bookstore, tipped in at the beginning of the first volume. Each vol. has a black-and-white picture as frontispiece.

PP. 340 to 363 (first volume) have slightly folded corners with no damage to the text. "The 1938 publication of George Haynes’ two-volume The Senate of the United States: Its History and Practice instantly made Haynes the nation’s leading academic authority on that institution. Reviewers routinely ranked Haynes’ work with Charles Warren’s monumental three-volume The Supreme Court in United States History, published 15 years earlier. While others had produced major studies examining individual areas of Senate activity, and while Lindsay Rogers had created an extended essay on the institution in defense of unlimited debate, Haynes was the first to attempt a comprehensive history." (Excerpt from the summary on the U.S. Senate's website)

Au cours de sa mission, le navire fit le tour du monde. Les maladies causèrent de nombreuses pertes humaines avec 188 survivants seulement sur les 1854 hommes qui avaient entrepris le voyage. Le grand intérêt suscité par le texte conduisit à la publication de quatre éditions en 1748."
