This reader, published after World War I, begins with a poem, "The American Boy." It is a dialogue between a father and son about patriotism. According to the author of this reader, the influence of the story "The Poor Little Match Girl" "founded many an orphan home and organized hundreds of societies for relief of the worthy poor," which indicates an emphasis on philanthropy and social work during the era of the Social Gospel.80% of selections taught traditional values."-- Sharon Vincz Andrews ; signature of a youthful Gerald Grout, later a Kansas Ophthalmologist ; GOOD.

First edition, first printing. Inscribed by the author to Brynmor Jones. Original black cloth lettered in gilt to the spine, in dustwrapper. A fine copy, the binding square and firm, the contents clean and bright throughout. In the dustwrapper, fine except for a short, closed tear (c. 0.5 cm) and a little associated creasing to…the upper spine tip. Not price-clipped (42s. net to the front flap). A sharp, crisp copy of volume, uncommon in cloth. Inscribed by Walter Greenleaf in blue ink to the front free endpaper "Dr. Brynmor Jones / With compliments / WHG / 19th November, 1964". Greenleaf (19272008) was Assistant Lecturer and subsequently Reader in Political Studies at the University of Hull between 1954 and 1967, later becoming Professor of Political Theory and Government at University College, Swansea until his retirement in 1982. 'Order, Empiricism and Politics', his first book, describes two of the main traditions of political thinking which flourished in England during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. "One, based on the philosophy of 'order', was linked with the development of theories of the divine right of kings and of non-resistance to established authority. The other, characteristically empirical in its method of analysis, was associated rather with the anti-royalist notion of mixed or limited government" (from the jacket). The book looks at the writings of King James I, Edward Forset, Robert Filmer, Jean Bodin, Francis Bacon, James Harrington, and William Petty. Sir Brynmor Jones (19031989), was born in North Wales and educated at University College of Wales at Bangor and at St John's College, Cambridge. In 1947 he became a professor chair at University College, where he later became Dean of Science, Deputy Principal. When the college achieved full university status in 1954, he became iPro-Vice-Chancellor and, in 1956, Vice-Chancellor. The expanded University of Hull Library, famously presided over by the poet, Philip Larkin, was named after Jones in 1967.
