Lundy was a native of New Jersey, born to Quaker parents in 1789. He was an early abolitionist. He traveled to Texas three times between 1830 and 1835 in hopes of establishing a colony of free blacks. Lundy’s hopes were dashed by the Texas Revolution dashed his hopes and Lundy died soon thereafter (August 1839).
Philadelphia: Printed for the Author by Merrihew and Gunn, 1836. 1st edition. 56 pages. First published serially in several successive issues of the National Enquirer (not THAT one) and then collected and published in pamphlet form. The original pamphlet was subsequently bound in three quarter leather over marbled boards. Presumably, the original pamphlet had a cover; however, the pamphlet that was encased begins with its title page. If the original pamphlet had a cover, it is no longer present. The pamphlet has some relatively minor age-toning. Faint signs of past handling can be detected on the binding; however, the evidence is subtle. Overall, text and binding are NEAR FINE to FINE.
