18419506New-York: F. J. Huntington and Co. 1841. Full leather. Good. Full sheep light scuffing and edge-wear joints fine tight 5 1/4 x 4 1/4 inches. Lacks the front free end papers blanks with one of two present at end. 341 2 pp. foxing. Printed in triple columns. Skeel 641. This copy has the variant of the advertising on the verso of p. 341 and the recto of the next leaf its verso being blank. See Skeel 639."Primary Schools" as used now means grades 1 to 3 but that is not the age intended by the author. We are uncertain of what the notion of a primary school was in 1833 when this dictionary was first published but the instructions to the reader are for older children or adults. A sample will suffice: "The orthography of a few words the etymology of which has been mistaken as furlow chimist melasses mold cigar redoubt redoutable controller and a few others has been corrected. The usual orthography is palpably erroneous." - p. iv.Noah Webster 1748-1843 American lexicographer & educator. Best known today for his Dictionary Webster was an ardent supporter of the American Revolution and of the beginnings of Federalism in the new United States. He saw education as a means for uniting the new nation and was a tireless promoter of his new spelling & educational endeavors. He eventually became disillusioned with the development of the party system of politics and concentrated his efforts in the realm of education. F. J. Huntington and Co. hardcover

183171210London: published by Black Young and Young foreign booksellers to the King 1831. First English edition used by Webster as a template for his 1841 octavo "reprinted by E. H. Barker Esq. of Thetford Norfolk from a copy communicated by the author and containing many manuscript corrections and additions: with an appendix by the editor"; 2 volumes 4to; 20th-century half green straight-grain morocco gilt-titled direct on gilt-paneled spines; title pages a bit foxed vertical crease on the title of volume II; otherwise a very good sound and clean copy preserving the terminal advertisement leaf in volume I. Early 20th-century ownership signature in pencil of Arno Clapham on the least leaf of each volume. One of the scarcest of the early editions of Webster. Of note is the inclusion of Joseph Worcester's "Synopsis of Words pronounced by different Orthoepists" extracted from the American edition of 1829 which was edited by Worcester and published prior to the rift that developed between the two lexicographers. As to the text of the lexicon itself Skeel notes that it "was reworked by the English editor and was not merely a reprinting" which is likely the reason Webster chose it as a model for his 1841 revision. Perhaps there is an article on the relationship between this English edition and the 1841 octavo but I'm not aware of one.
