1879028177Philadelphia: American Sunday School Union 1879. 12mo. 7 pages. The only recorded copy in OCLC for this items is at the American Antiquarian Society. If a Sunday School would send $20.80 it would receive 50 items in the catalogue as it states: "contains over 12000 printed pages.with 212 full page large fine engravings." The National Educational Journal in 1879 listed this along with ads which were predominately for religious publications. What this indicates is that basic evangelical religious ideas were interwoven with the primary school educators of the day. The tracts they offered neglected any ideas that black people existed and also often made negative comments about Roman Catholicism. While the modern day reader sees them only as simplistic moral religious tales it is important to know that this was the everyday staple for the vast majority of Americans on the farm or small town.String bound toning to edges crease through center.

Boards rubbed pages foxed and toned page 19's corner missing does not affect text. 1844 Hard Cover. We have more books available by this author!. 101 pp. 12mo bound in sixes. Black leather spine marbled boards gilt titles. "The Children's Crusade is the name given to a variety of fictional and factual events which happened in 1212 that combine some or all of these elements: visions by a French or German boy; an intention to peacefully convert Muslims in the Holy Land to Christianity; bands of children marching to Italy; and children being sold into slavery. A study published in 1977 cast doubt on the existence of these events and many historians now believe that they were not or not primarily children but multiple bands of "wandering poor" in Germany and France some of whom tried to reach the Holy Land and others who never intended to do so. Early versions of events of which there are many variations told over the centuries are largely apocryphal. American Sunday-School Union hardcover books
