Early reprint ("Fifteenth Thousand" as stated upon title page; first published 1851). 370 pages. Hardcover: H 19.5cm x L 13.25cm. Contemporary brown cloth; several black ink stains to boards and slightly sunned spine; bumping and slight wear at spine ends and board corners. Strong toning to pastedowns; three antiquarian ink inscriptions Port Gibson, Mississippi resident Samuel Briscoe, Esq. on front free endpaper with yet another on front flyleaf with those having some carry-through impressions onto successive title and Preface leaves; varied foxing (occasionally quite strong) throughout; several ink blots/stains obscuring some text on pages 119-120; top corners of pages 129-130 and 341-342 creased from past fold-down. Binding is firm. Preface by editor James Young who, as the title page notes, served as Grand Worthy Patriarch of the Grand Division of the Sons of Temperance in Kentucky. Features seventeen essays by various contributors including the renowned Dr. Daniel Drake of Cincinnati, and Methodist Episcopal Church theologian Reverend Thomas O. Summers. The book also has three notable Mississippi contributors: Reverend A.B. Longstreet of Oxford, twice president of University of Mississippi ("The Voice of Warning" - pages 41-60); Rev. William Winans of Woodville ("An O'er True Tale" - pages 113-118); and Rev. Philip P. Neely [Philip Phillips Neely] of Columbus ("Idella Pemberton, of the Prayer of Faith" - pages 291-298). As for the enthusiastic owner, a cemetery reference site notes a Samuel M. Briscoe (1849-1894) of Claiborne County, Mississippi and, although obviously only age 5 upon this book's publication, the penmanship and ink is certainly contemporary to 1850s-1870s.
