Hardcover. Condition: Fair. No Jacket. A handsome late 18th-century full-leather binding, contemporary calf with a gilt Greek-key roll-tooled border to both boards and a spine decorated in compartments with raised bands, gilt florets/stars, and a red morocco spine label (label heavily chipped and worn, with the title largely lost — only "WA[TTS]" and a partial second line legible). There is a crack to the front board along the front hinge/joint, visible as a horizontal split in the leather roughly midway down the cover; the rear board appears sound. Corners are bumped and the leather shows general surface rubbing, scuffing, and light water-staining/mottling to both boards, consistent with age and handling. Marbled endpapers to front and rear in a grey/black and dusky-pink combed pattern. The front free endpaper carries an early ownership inscription, "John I. Harford, Jun.," along with a pencilled price notation ("£2") and an unrelated pen-and-ink sketch of a figure on the facing blank leaf. In Paper is toned with scattered foxing and some old dampstaining/creasing to a number of leaves, but text remains fully legible throughout. As noted, there is contemporary ink underlining and marginal notation to a portion of the text (see photographed example), which appears to be an early reader's annotation rather than damage. No loose or detached leaves were noted; the binding remains structurally intact aside from the described hinge crack.…

Isaac Watts (1674-1748), best known today as a theologian and hymn writer, was also one of the eighteenth century's most influential educators and popular philosophers. The Improvement of the Mind became one of the most widely read guides to self-education in the English-speaking world, offering practical advice on logic, critical thinking, reading, note-taking, conversation, and the pursuit of knowledge. The work was intended to help readers cultivate intellectual discipline and lifelong learning. This 1743 Second Edition represents an early appearance of one of the foundational texts of Enlightenment self-improvement literature. Watts' emphasis on reason, observation, and methodical study influenced generations of students, ministers, scientists, and educators. Surviving eighteenth-century copies in original calf bindings remain desirable both as historical artifacts and as examples of early educational philosophy. Carefully packed and shipped in a box.

Second Cambridge Edition. Wonderful example of this early 19th century, American wallpaper binding, in the form of Isaac Watts's popular book for children. Divine songs, a collection of verse which provided lessons in politeness and behavior for middle class children, was widely read for more than 150 years after it first appeared in 1715. William Blake would famously oppose the genre, and specifically Watts's work, in 1789 with his Songs of Innocence and Experience. In Welch's Bibliography of American Children's Books Printed Prior to 1821, a similar copy is described as having "covers ornamented with crosses of black, squares of brown and circles of light green." OCLC locates 9 copies of this edition, likely few in the decorated covers. Welch 1240.17. 16mo, 15.5x9cm, [iii], iv, [5], 6-36pp. Original buff wallpaper covers, stitched, and ornamented with thick black lines, vines, and circles in faded red and brown. Very good with some staining throughout, former owner's name and date on first blank page. Spine mostly perished, wear and rubbing to edges else complete.…
