1838réf. 7282London: Printed for Houlston and Co 1838. First edition. Very Good . Twelvemo. 252 1 ads pp. Complete with the frontispiece. Publisher's red cloth with gilt spine. All edges gilt. A bright and attractive copy with just a bit of foxing to verso of frontispiece and toning to last few leaves. Contemporary ink gift inscription to upper flyleaf: "Mary Tollmash Clements - A birthday gift from her affectionate father." Very Good A collection of six stories by Esther Copley 1786 - 1851 an abolitionist children's author and public health advocate born in London to parents of Huguenot origin. Her tracts included Hints on the Cholera morbus 1832 a guide to remedies and prevention of cholera and domestic tracts for the working class that included information on childbirth and other health topics. Her numerous works for young readers included collections of stories for middle- and working-class children as well as nonfiction like The Young Reviewers 1821 which introduced children to literary criticism; Scripture Natural History for Youth 1828; and A History of Slavery and its Abolition 1836. A History of Slavery was a crucial work "tracing the course of slavery from scriptural times to Copley's own day. Her youthful audience was spared neither graphic descriptions of the sufferings of black slaves in the West Indies nor lengthy accounts of the proceedings of the anti-slavery movement" Oxford DNB. Copley's work remains "a witness to the significant commitment of nonconformist women to the anti-slavery cause" ibid. Very Good . Printed for Houlston and Co unknown
