Early reprint likely circa 1855 (first published by Lane & Scott in 1849). Collates as 3-66 pages. Hardcover: H 15cm x L 9.75cm. Contemporary cloth stained and soiled; cloth loss at frayed spine ends and at board edges; flaking and dulling to spine's gilt decoration but with gilt title lettering still legible. Foxing, staining, and soiling to leaves; mostly erased/faded pencil writing on pastedowns but other pencil writing/scribbling scattered amongst text leaves. Front and rear free endpapers and perhaps a half-title leaf missing; first leaf present (i.e. pages 3-4) is frontispiece. Only a good copy at best. OCLC dose not locate this Carlton & Porter imprint and no author is cited upon title leaf. OCLC cites the 1849 Lane & Scott edition as authored by a Methodist preacher and edited by Daniel P. Kidder.
