Add to basketBeware, you who believe you can prosper by following the course of what you believe to be logic and reason, based on evidence and your own powers of perception! For only by studying and having implicit faith in every Word of the Bible can you avoid the fall into Hell, as young apprentice Harry Linford must soon learn. An odd little 16mo hardcover Christian tract, usually identified as 1828 (as may be -- copyright date of 1828 is only date printed here), but in this case identified by a previous owner's inscription as having belonged to the "Maysville Sabbath School (Maysville probably being the Kentucky settlement where Daniel Boone established a trading post and tavern) followed by "July" and then a year which is either 1850 or 1858. Frontispiece engraving of young men tempted to start down the deadly ladder to oblivion. Scattered foxing; marbled boards well worn, most of spine label present but no longer legible; grade this 16mo (hardcover, but the size of a modern mass-market paperback) "Good." 126 pp. Reduced from $52.
