Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. pp. xii, 159. Illustrated. 8vo. Original cloth binding. Dust jacket. This unique book is a study of 200 years of representative government seen from the perspective of one congressional seat. And, it is a detailed account of how one of America's oldest and most colorful areas, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, has both affected national policy-making and been affected by it. Among the great figures who served this district are: George Ross, Signer of the Declaration; Frederick Muhlenberg, first Speaker of the House of Representatives; Thadeus Stevens; and future-President James Buchanan. A very crisp copy of a fascinating book, written by two of the region's representatives in Congress.**PRICE JUST REDUCED! PAG08A x3 Language: eng.
