Description

Boston: Houghton, Mifflin and Company ... The Riverside Press, Cambridge, 1884. 12mo, pp. xvi, 114; previous owner's signature on front pastedown, else a very good, sound copy in original blue cloth, gilt-stamped spine. This copy inscribed "John M. Gould, Esq. with regards of R. G. Hazard." The author (1801-1888) was a native Rhode Islander who spent most of his life at the family business manufacturing woolens. He served three terms as a member of the R.I. House of Representatives. He possessed the habit "of looking for general principles, and of applying the results of abstract thinking to practical ends, [and] engaged himself with problems of Reconstruction, and other questions of the day ... His underlying interests were philosophical. When on his business trips, while travelling on packets and stage-coaches, on boats and trains, he made notes for later books" (DAB).
