Thats not quite what I meant. I live in Oregon, I can’t hop on over and walk in the door. I meant physical access, I should have been more clear.
I know one was returned to the New York Library, George Washington neglected to return his copy. His estate was in the news about a year ago with regard to the late fee. Interesting no? He considered it valuable enough to not return it. I don’t think for an instant he forgot it.
The tome was a true masterwork. It gave the best of the best in governments the world over. People call America the great experiment, and Vattel’s work is what that experiment is largely based upon.
I agree, this is a tome worth preserving for the ages.
The reason GW kept the Law of Nations..maybe it was the book he used to take his oath and not the Bible.
The book is probably buried with him in the crypt.
