A new edition of a series of books issued by disreputable Boston printer and bookseller Nathanial Coverly Jr. beginning just after the War of 1812. Includes passages from the first three
narratives that were omitted from the final composite, making a fuller account than has been available since the 19th-century. The story is of a seduced and abandoned woman who disguises
herself and serves heroically on the USS Constitution to escape prostitution. Well supported with scholarly paraphernalia. Paper edition (unseen), ＄14.95. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc.,
