The Fugitive Blacksmith; or, Events in the History of James W. C. Pennington

James W.C. Pennington · Charles Gilpin (London) · 1849

Because Pennington's narrative went through at least three printings within about a year, check the title page itself for an edition statement; only a copy silent on this point (no 'Second Edition' or 'Third Edition' wording) represents the true first printing, even though several distinct printings are dated 1849-50.
