绝版性历史书籍————《乾隆36年版线装山西汾阳县志》。根据目前信息,现存的整版全卷《乾隆36年山西汾阳县志》仅此2套;中国国家图书馆存有另外全卷。山西汾阳在中国历史上是非常重要的地方,人才辈出,著名历史人物郭子仪出自汾阳,汾阳郭氏后代遍布全球,了解汾阳历史必须阅读全卷16本。该乾隆36年全卷汾阳县志如此保留下来是因为前美国驻中国大使(1981-1985)恒安石出生在山西汾阳,其父亲恒幕义曾经生活在山西汾阳并收集中国古董、书籍,该全套书籍被其父亲恒幕义带到美国,恒幕义是位汉学家,是美国国会图书馆东方部的创建人并兼第一任主任,他曾采购了大量中国古代书籍,至今这些书籍是美国国会图书馆的骄傲.该全卷汾阳县志虽然是地方性记录文献,可是由当时的大学士等名人概括前言,并且提出《国家统一无远弗届》之论述(见图片8),从中看出清乾隆时期即强调国家统一之重要性。

来源:美国前驻中国大使恒安石家族收藏。
