This 1868 book by Hurd and Houghton, titled "A Sketch of the Official Life of John A. Andrew, as Governor of Massachusetts," contains a portrait of John A. Andrew and a text of his valedictory address. Published in New York, the book provides insights into Andrew's governorship during the American Civil War. The portrait, a photographic print pasted into the book, shows Andrew in a formal pose, wearing a dark suit and tie.
