Providence: Carter and Wilkinson 1794. Bewick John. 12mo. 160 x 100 mm. 6 1/4 x 4 inches. 8 252 pp. Illustrated with 37 cuts by John Bewick. First American Edition. Contemporary calf binding with red leather spine label. Leather rubbed. Pages toned with some worming to margins. Binding sound. Hamilton calls for an engraved frontispiece by S. Hill of Boston that is not present in this copy. These morality stories for children by the French author and poet Arnaud Berquin 1747-1791 originally appeared in monthly installments in a magazine called L' Ami Des Enfans. The tales were so popular they were collected and published together in French and English. Berquin's work is notable for its realism and lack of fantasy - no castles or supernatural powers are found within these pages. He wrote with the "conviction that children should be addressed directly in language they could readily understand."

As in the instance of a copy at Texas A&M University the Idylle in hand has been separately bound in our copy's case finely bound well highlighting the vignette and tailpiece engraved by Charles-Étienne Gaucher 17401804 after Clément Pierre Marillier 17401808 and the text engraved in an attractive italic "hand" by Droüet.<br>Â Â Â Â The two-part text was not reprinted until 1883 by J. Lemonnyer in an edition of 525 copies.<br>Â Â Â Â Binding: Fine olive brown morocco gilt ca. 1910 and very much expressing that era's style. Each board double-ruled in gilt and finely framed with a canopy of elegant gilt garlands title gilt at center of front cover. Spine gilt extra from top to bottom in a leafy vine pattern. Board edges single-ruled in gilt turn-ins double-ruled in gilt with a rule of delicate gilt beads between french combed marbled endpapers in an exceptionally pretty and precise pattern. <br>Â Â Â Â <br>Â Â Â Â Cioranescu 11517. Bound as above second part only of two separately; binding a little rubbed only at joints edges and one corner of front cover. Paper chosen for blank endpapers unevenly bleached in production to now-spotty but not unpleasant effect; text with a little age-toning at upper edges and some light dust-soiling at deckle edges. => A bibliophile's pleasure. unknown books
