Paperback. Apparently an ad hoc commemorative piece, softcover, approximately 6 1/2 x 9 1/2 inches, consisting of the 3 separate works mentioned in the title, with a tipped-in photo of a statue of Mullen by Albert E Harnisch, with a handwritten notation mentoning that it was shown at the Centennial Exhibition in 1876 (made to ap…pear a bit kitschy by the addition of the ubiquitous cherubs from Raphael's "Assumption" and a few other details from paintings superimposed in the foreground) , a tipped-in engraving by Sartain with just the statue of Mullen, a full page drawing of the House of Industry founded by the Philadelphia Society for the Employment and Instruction of the Poor, an in-text drawing of Mullen, and another of the Church of the Evangelists, all bound into gray paper covers. Very good. Covers are lightly age tanned, 1 inch chip off upper corner of rear cover, several lesser nicks and chips, text lightly age yellowed, with "ghost" of the engraving on the page facing, but otherwise tight, clean, paper crisp and unmarked. William J Mullen was one of the great prison and social reformers of the 19th century, securing the release of thousands who were being held without trial, and a founder and director of the abovementioned Society and poor house. Scarce. Biography; prison reform; sociology; jurisprudence; Victorian; history; Americana.
