| dc.description.abstract | Addressed to Thomas Jefferson, transmitting a copy of the writer's almanac and discussing the subject of slavery. Jefferson's reply, p. 11-12, is dated Aug. 30, 1791. An account of Banneker's life appears on p. 13-15. Evans' entry for an edition printed by Joseph Crukshank for Daniel Lawrence (Evans 24074) is apparently a ghost of the present edition. READEX NOTE: Pages 13-15 not filmed at entry 24073. The entire item is filmed at entry 24074. |
