Notes on the State of VirginiaLondon, 1787JEFFERSON, Thomas (1743-1826). Notes on the State of Virginia. London: for John Stockdale, 1787. First English edition, following the privately printed, extremely rare first edition (Paris, 1782 [i.e. 1785], see lot 56) and a poor French translation (Paris, 1786). This edition contains new accounts of events during and since the Revolution, and features the map engraved at Jefferson's request to incorporate the most up-to-date topographical data on the soon-to-be-opened Ohio Valley. Two of the three appendices are of considerable significance; these were issued as supplements with a few copies of the original edition, but are integral to this edition. Appendix II contains the full text of the proposed Virginia constitution, while Appendix III contains the Virginia act for establishing religious freedom, passed in 1786. ESTC T147402; Sabin 35896. Octavo (208 x 127mm). Large folding map of Virginia handcolored in outline, woodcut cave plan, folding chart (Advertisement leaf reinforced, mild dustsoiling and toning to map, small marginal stain to first several pages). Modern half calf (a bit tight). Provenance: Medical Society of Edinburgh (notation in Latin on title page: “Ex Libris Soc[ietaitis]: Med[ica]: Edinen[sis]:”).
