All essays show the same publisher and location but no where is there a copyright date. Preface is dated 1828 but this is the case for all printings of this collection and the publisher, Silas Andrus & Son, was not in business until 1831. Estimated publication date to be 1835 as later editions released by this publisher listed a date on the bottom of the title page.
