[Oglethorpe] directed the economic and political development of the new colony, defended it militarily, and continued to generate support and recruit settlers in England and other parts of Europe. – The New Georgia Encyclopedia. He was a proponent of prison reform and protecting Indigenous rights and was adamantly against slavery.
Very good condition, noting two creased leaves and minor bumps to slipcase, as photographed. Would make a lovely gift set, as it displays handsomely.
