1975021919Reading Berks Co. PA: Historical Society of Berks County 1975. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. First Thus. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Facsimile reprint edition of 1975. Originally published in one volume by Everts Peck & Richards 1886. No. 61 of an edition limited to 500 copies. x1204 pp. Accompanied by every-name index volume specifically compiled for this facsimile republication. 199 pp. Both volumes bound in burgundy textured boards lightly rubbed at extremities light surface wear. Scarce reprint edition of the initial edition of Montgomery's history of Berks County later revised and expanded into two volumes 1909.
