182313925Dedham: H. & W. H. Mann 1823. First Edition. Sewn binding. Good . Large octavo 25pp. Ex-library with two stamps to the title page and a few stray pencil markings else clean. Side-sewing intact but extra stab holes and missing wrappers suggest that it was removed at some point from a bound volume of other works. Marginal tear to pp. 3-4 just barely approaches text else with shallower chips and tears to extremities. Untrimmed. Minimal foxing; a good or better example. Horace Mann's first publication which he printed at his own expense. A passionate and upbeat celebration of America's first 47 years which looks forward to the fruits of westward expansion. Published when Mann was a young lawyer; in fact the same year that he was admitted to the Massachusetts bar. As such it precedes his earliest writings on education--the subject for which he is best remembered--by more than a decade. Missed by his early bibliographers. <br /> <br /> Scarce in the trade. OCLC records perhaps a dozen holdings distinctly concentrated in Massachusetts. Sabin only records a posthumous reprint as part of a collected edition. American Imprints 13120. H. & W. H.
