Soft cover. 1st Edition. Octavo. Pp. iv, 5-57 (verso blank), 69-70. Sewn, front plain wrapper missing. Few small stains at verso of title-page show through, bit dog-eared and dusty. In a very good condition, much cleaner than commonly seen. ~ FIRST EDITION. Good, clean unsophisticated copy, preserved entirely in the original condition. Apparently printed in sections, presumably by John Dixon, Thomas Nicolson and Augustine Davis, rival Richmond printers. Includes data correct for September 1791; some sources attribute 1792 as publishing year. The Preface is signed "John Asplund, a Sweed. Southampton County, Virginia, July 14, 1791." The present work is an abridgement of the 70 p. Philadelphia edition (Evans 26583) printed by Dobson in September 1772. In the present issue, the appendix relating to the Baptist churches of Great Britain (p. 58-66) has been omitted, and p. 57 has been reset. As is the case with the 70 p. issue, the first 16 p. are the same sheets as appear in the original (Richmond, April 1792) edition (Evans 26580), and were probably printed in 1791. Evans, however, postulates that the first 16 p. were printed by Dobson in September 1792. He accounts for their presence in copies of the (Richmond) edition of 60 p. by suggesting that Asplund substituted the corrected Philadelphia sheets for the unsatisfactory sheets of the earlier edition. Cf. the prefaces to the 1794 and 1796 editions, with title: "The universal register of the Baptist denomination." Pages 69-70 consist of "Remarks" i.e, errata and additions.
