About This Item
New York: Harper & Brothers, 1851. FIRST AMER. EDITION. This original book is disbound without front or back covers. Lacking spine. Lightly soiled. Slight foxing. Overall a BINDING copy. GRACE AGUILAR (2 June 1816 16 September 1847), an English novelist and writer on Jewish history and religion. She was delicate from childhood, and early showed great interest in history, especially Jewish history. The death of her father threw her on her own resources. After a few dramas and poems she published in the United States in 1842 Spirit of Judaism, in defence of her faith and its professors, and in 1845 The Jewish Faith and The Women of Israel. She is, however, best known by her novels, of which the chief are Home Influence (1847) and A Mother's Recompense (1850). Her health gave way in 1847, and she died in that year at Frankfurt. Her other works include Magic Wreath, and Vale of Cedars (1850).. First American Edition. Disbound. Poor. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
