Railroad.

NY: Random House, (1976). First Edition. The uncorrected proof copy of this compendium of pieces on railroads, a number of them written by McPherson, who had originally contracted to write a whole book on the subject, a project which evolved into this one, not altogether to the author's liking, according to his later comments.

Region, Race, and Reconstruction: Essays in Honor of C. Vann Woodward.

New York, Oxford University Press, 1982. Hardcover. Small 4to. Yellow cloth. xxxvii, 463pp. Near fine. First edition, a tight and handsome copy (though lacking dust jacket) of this surprisingly uncommon tribute volume, with contributions from Willie Lee Rose, Charles B. Dew, Louis P. Masur, William S. McFeely and other noted historians. Best of all, this copy bears a choice autograph addition: Tipped to an inner flyleaf is a Typed Note Signed from Woodward (1908-99), 1p, 5½" X 8½", New Haven, CT, 1982 April 22. Addressed to noted Lincoln and Civil War scholar Arnold F. Gates (1914-93). Fine. On Yale University Department of History letterhead, Woodward notes, "It was good of you to write me about the prize" -- referring to the Pulitzer Prize he'd just won for his "Mary Chesnut's Civil War." He then comments, "And it is reassuring to know that you follow through on such charges as were made in the Times." What "charge" Woodward refers to is unclear, but certainly worth further research. Full bold signature in blue ballpoint. Original mailing envelope also present.
