Early edition; 6 x 3 1/4; pp. [3], 6-72; turquoise wraps, printed and ruled in black; closed cut to tail of spine and a small chip to head; faint discoloration to back wrap and last few leaves; small signature of previous owner to title page; illustrated with 72 wood engravings of biblical scenes; in good to very good condition.Joseph Emerson (1777-1833) was an American Congregationalist pastor. Though he wrote several books, his "Evangelical Primer" was his most ambitious and popular work. Interestingly enough, it was speculated that the postage-stamp-size woodcuts were deliberately created to be intricately and beautifully executed, so as to be appealing but small enough, so as not to distract the attention from the primary purpose of the book.
