In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Good. 1st Edition. Sacred History in the Form of Letters was written as an engaging introduction to Biblical history for the pupils of the pioneering Edinburgh Sessional School, one of the most influential educational institutions of early nineteenth-century Scotland. Compiled by the Scottish educational refo…rmer John Wood, the work presents the principal events of Scripture as a series of accessible letters, combining religious instruction with historical narrative. Intended to encourage both literacy and moral education, the series reflects the progressive teaching methods adopted by the Edinburgh Sessional School, whose approach to the education of children from poorer backgrounds attracted widespread attention and influenced educational reform well beyond Scotland. Sacred History in the form of Letters addressed to the Pupils of Edinburgh Sessional School. By the Author of the Account of That Institution, &c. Volumes I - VI (of VII). The anonymous "Author of the Account of That Institution" is John Wood, an Edinburgh advocate and one of the founders and principal supporters of the Edinburgh Sessional School. He also wrote the Account of the Edinburgh Sessional School, to which the title alludes. Printed for John Wardlaw, Edinburgh and William Collins, Glasgow; James Duncan, and Whittaker, Treacher and Co., London; and W. Curry, Jun. and Co., Dublin (list varies a little by volume). Volumes I-VI of VII. Part I is the second edition (1835); Parts II-VI are first editions, published between 1830 and 1833. Provenance: Signed by Anthony Murray of Crieff. Murray, known as "Auld Dullerie," was part of a scholarly Scottish lineage with connections to the University of Leiden, the Jacobite rising, and military and scientific service through the 18th and 19th centuries. A good (minus) set of hardback volumes - bound with green leather spine with gilt titles and rules. Boards with marbled paper. The covers of Part I are almost detached and just held by binding cords. Front cover of Part Vi is also fragile, but holding. The other 4 parts are more soundly bound. Covers with scuffing and bumping. Some with worn heads of spine. Text is generally bright and clean with no spotting. Some cracking to gutters in places between gatherings. Part IV with some damp staining to first few pages. Still a very usable set. Text in English. Dimensions: each volume approx 148mm high x 92mm wide x 22mm deep. Weight: approximately 1104g (the set - unpacked).

Johnson.A very attractive copy of the most popular work of Philip Miller (1691-1771), the foremost British gardener of the eighteenth century, with five folding plates of botanical illustrations. 'Miller's Gardener's Kalendar, published in fifteen editions between 1732 and 1765, catered for the modest gardener who needed practical advice [Miller] produced a work not only portable, but also at a price to suit those who could not afford a larger book. At four shillings a copy it came within the purse of most and indeed was judged to be "a manual to the whole kingdom". Its aim was to bring into "one easy and concise view" what might be of use to those "hindered by other avocations from bestowing much time in the study of this delightful and innocent work" Under each month could be found directions for work to be done in the kitchen garden with notes on its produce, the pleasure or flower garden with plants then in flower, and the greenhouse and stove with their plants in bloom' (Le Rougetel, pp. 1013). Henrey 1141. See Le Rougetel, The Chelsea Gardener: Philip Miller 1691-1771 (1990). Language: English.
