Notes:
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.
