Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. Printed in the U.S.A. Date on the title page. First Printing. Frontispiece, Preface, List of Illustrations, Prologue, Appendix, Index; xxvii, 517 pages. The original maroon cloth is a bit scuffed, with several white marks; there is some rubbing, with slight loss, to corner tips and spine ends. The binding is strong. The interior is a bit toned throughout, but all plates are clear; there are no markings in the text, though the word 'autobiography' is written in ink on the front free endpaper. Opposite, is a charming bookplate by Julia Flory for Joel Babcock Hayden and Hazel Petty Hayden.

During her last years she wrote, 'scatteredly' and 'dispersedly,' a philosophical treatise of such originality that Leibniz himself not only drew from it some of his characteristic ideas, but again and again called attention, in his letters and essays, to the influence which she had had upon him. Henry More dedicated his first important prose work to her---"An Antidote Against Atheism." [See my father's copy of More's said 'Antidote' (1712 fourth edition) listed separately.] As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage.
