This edition of "Treatise of Civil Government and A Letter Concerning Toleration" by John Locke is published by Appleton-Century-Crofts, Inc. in 1937. Edited by Charles L. Sherman, an Associate Professor of Political Science at Amherst College, this book provides an insightful exploration into Locke's influential political philosophies. The work was first published in the late 17th century, but this specific printing offers a mid-20th century perspective on Locke’s enduring ideas. The book, bound in trade paperback, is part of the Appleton-Century Philosophy Source-Books series. Despite the wear and annotations, this edition serves as a valuable resource for those interested in political philosophy and the historical context of Locke's thoughts on governance and religious toleration. Its scarcity in this format makes it a noteworthy addition for collectors and scholars alike.
