Description
1859. New York: Harper and Brothers, 1859. Sm. 8vo, [8], 9-381, (2, ads)pp. With a frontispiece and 7 plates by Frank Bellew. Original pebbled brown cloth, covers blind-stamped with oval design within a rectangle. A little faded and worn, generally a very good copy of a fragile book printed on cheap paper in a cheap cloth binding. ß First and only edition (excluding modern reprints) of a rare and moving plea on behalf of unhoused children in New York, echoing Dickens and others of the period. 1859 is often referred to as the golden year of the 19th century book -- Darwin's Origin, Dickens's Tale of Two Cities, Eliot's Adam Bede, Fitzgerald's Omar Khayyam, Tennyson's Idylls of the King, Mill's On Liberty, Smiles's Self Help, Goncharov's Oblamov, etc. This book, almost unknown and held in only 6 libraries per OCLC, deserves to be better known. Not in Blanck or anywhere else we can cite except for Hamilton, Early American Book Illustrators, # 1491.
