Hardcover ledger recording distances traveled by congressmen to attend the first session of the 23rd United States Congress, 7.5 x 10, signed inside by the politicians to certify their attendance, with most dated December 2, 1833.

Muhlenberg, Henry A. Wise, Richard Mentor Johnson, John Bell, Ratliff Boon, Clement Comer Clay, Levi Lincoln, Joseph Trumbull, and dozens of others. In fine condition, with wear only to the book's covers and cocked spine; interior pages are all clean. A superb piece of Americana, boasting the highly desirable signature of Davy Crockett along with four American presidents in Adams, Pierce, Fillmore, and Polk.
