Excised leaf of an advertisement also laid in. First American editions of the <i>Bible of Nature</i> and of the <i>Opus Maximum</i>.</p>An interesting example of an early American radical book publishing consortium. Pedestrian Stewart 1742-1822 was by all accounts a brilliant eccentric who had traveled across Europe and England and large chunks of North America on foot all in an attempt to reform both men and their minds; his ideas tended toward the radical if perhaps at times unreadable. See the DNB. <br /><br />The two volumes here of <i>The Bible of Nature</i> were published together by a consortium of free thought and radical publishers including expatriate English free thought emigrants Gilbert Vale and George Evans and by J. P. Mendum; the second volume as collected here appears either to be fragmentary or published solely as an introduction to stereotype editions of the Evans editions of <i>Moral State of Nations</i> and the <i>Revelation of Nature</i>. <br /><br />Something of a bibliographical tangle given that the stereotype plates were evidently available free to the asking for American radical publishers of the period and completeness of the second part of the <i>Bible of Nature</i> is unclear and may have been included here simply as a sort of table of contents to the volumes that here follow; whether this sammelband is as published and sold by the radical reformer George Henry Evans or had collected by an early reader is unclear. The New-York edition of <i>Opus Maxium</i> not located in OCLC. <br /><br />Somewhat rubbed bumped and a trifle shaken; some foxing and light staining; a good copy. [v. p.] books
