Tan paper wraps 117 pp. 24 color plates 4 fold-outs. Title on cover: Buenos Ayres and Monte Video in a series of Picturesque Illustrations Taken on the Spot. A facsimile reprint of the original book released in 1820 featuring these early 19th-century views from Argentina rendered by English painter Emeric Essex Vidal 1791-1861. Includes an introduction and a running narrative by the artist. The illustrations appear in color here; one presumes that in the 1820 edition they did not have the benefit of such technology.

Gore Vidal's Narratives of Empire series spans the history of the United States from the Revolution to the post-World War II years. With their broad canvas and large cast of fictional and historical characters the novels in this series present a panorama of the American political and imperial experience as interpreted by one of its most worldly knowing and ironic observers. BURR is a portrait of perhaps the most complex and misunderstood of the Founding Fathers. In 1804 while serving as vice president Aaron Burr fought a duel with his political nemesis Alexander Hamilton and killed him. In 1807 he was arrested tried and acquitted of treason. In 1833 Burr is newly married an aging statesman considered a monster by many. Burr retains much of his political influence if not the respect of all. And he is determined to tell his own story. As his amanuensis he chooses Charles Schermerhorn Schuyler a young New York City journalist and together they explore both Burr's past and the continuing political intrigues of the still young United States.
