About this Item

HB. This was first published in 1842, when the Rev. Adams was ill. He died in 1848. I do not know the publisher for the first edition. There is no info in this book for me to clearly ascertain what edition it is, it could be a first Longmans edition. Or, if Longmans were the original publishers, than it is a reprint.
