199032779Winchester: St Paul's Bibliographies 1990. cloth. Children's Books. 8vo. cloth. xvii 180 pages. First edition. In the early nineteenth century the prevailing influence in children's books was the promotion of morality coupled with instruction and fairy-tales and such-like improper subjects were widely discouraged. So Benjamin Tabart showed no little courage when within three years of opening his Juvenile Library in Bond Street he launched out into the publication of a series of well-produced fairy-tales and nursery stories.<BR><br /> <BR><br /> During his short publishing career he continued to provide children's bookshelves with light-hearted attractive-looking books for which he employed excellent artists and some of the best children's writers of the day. Many of his publications are now very scarce but Marjorie Moon has recorded about a hundred and ninety titles often in several editions which have survived the hazards of nursery life. Since Mr. Tabert was not only a publisher but also a bookseller part two of this bibliography includes other titles which he advertized as being on sale in his shop.<BR><br /> <BR><br /> An introduction discussing Tabart's publishing career his family life and the very close connection between Tabart and the prolific publisher Sir Richard Phillips is included. Brian Alderson has contributed an appendix on the illustrating of two of Tabart's picture-books and another appendix reprints William Goodwin's remarkable preface to his book of Bible stories which so horrified Mrs. Trimmer the self-appointed critic of Georgian children's reading matter.
