Description
Mechanical Processes by George W. Danforth 1912 Signed First Edition with Letters from the Author. The Author sent this copy to his son. The book and letters were in the son’s estate. The letters are to and from numerous people that the author sent copies of the book to for reviews and attempts to boost sales of the book. The book is in great condition and the letters are also especially for being over 100 years old. The letters tell a very interesting tale of how the author struggled to make his book a success and the fight he had with copywright infringement a few years after the book was published.
