The copy I purchased was a library book. It was well cared for, and in very good condition. The price differential between a new vs. used copy was substantial. This was the perfect choice to serve as a gift for a history buff who doesn't care if the cover isn't in perfect condition.

This book is a great collection of photos and descriptions of the historic homes. I have visited a few of these homes in person and now I can revisit them by looking them up in this book. The photos are wonderful and carefully composed. This book describes the history of the homes and their relationship to each historical person that lived in them. I especially enjoy being able to revisit the homes at my leisure. I find new details and historical facts every time I reread this book.
The photography was beautiful, but I wanted more interior shots as well as all of the signers of the Declaration--and it definitely wasn't that. Still, it was a beautiful book.
I bought this as a gift for my father for Father's Day in 2010. I've looked through it myself and thought the photos were delightful and the descriptions of the Founding Father's very insightful and a pleasure to read.
