Hardcover (Full Leather). Condition: Very Good. Eighth Edition. Sir Richard Steele was an Irish writer and politician, remembered as co-founder, with his friend Joseph Addison, of the magazine The Spectator. Steele's first published work, The Christian Hero (1701), attempted to point out the differences between perceived and actual masculinity. Written while Steele served in the army, it expressed his idea of a pamphlet of moral instruction. The Christian Hero was ultimately ridiculed for what some thought was hypocrisy because Steele did not necessarily follow his own preaching. He was criticized for publishing a booklet about morals when he himself enjoyed drinking, occasional dueling, and debauchery around town. Six-page dedication to Lord Cutts, Colonel of the Cold-Stream Guards, and a seven-page preface. Size: 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall. 78 pages. wear to spine gilt & titles faded. no Dust Jacket as published. all edges red. leather covers with gilt decorated spine & outer edges plus gilt fillet outer border to front & rear. mottled wear to cover & small horizontal scratch to front.

Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: See note. 12mo, 117 pages, uncut, considerable worming to spine, inscription on pastedown, front hinge broken. This was the first work published by Steele in which he displayed his missionary zeal and reforming spirit, which later evolved into his publications with Joseph Addison, with whom he is inextricably linked. This duodecimo is in original boards and cloth, wrapped by what may be a contemporary "dust jacket". (Note: the evidence of the worming suggests that the paper jacket is of lengthy duration).

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 5th or later Edition. (16), 68 pages. 140x80mm. Contemporary blind stamped calf. Sir Richard Steele (1672-1729) essayist, dramatist and politician. Born in Dublin, Steele's father was a well known attorney in that city, with a country house at Monkstown. On the death of his parents, Steele passed at an early age into the care of his uncle Henry Gascoigne, private secretary to James Butler, first Duke of Ormond. Educated at Oxford, he pursued a career in the army until able to support himself through a combination of advantageous marriage, political appointment and literary endeavor. The writing of 'The Christian Hero' was occasioned by his involvement in a duel, where he seriously injured a fellow Irishman named Kelly. Its style is unlike that of the devotional or inspirational manuel of the time and gives strong hints of Steele's later celebrated essay style. This is a very attractive little copy of the fifth edition with the blind stamped initials BB on front cover and a contemporary bookplate with crest of pierced mullet and fleur de Lis, initialed E S R. Advertisement at front for 'Books lately Printed and Sold by Owen Lloyd.' Without any damage, library stamps, inscriptions or other markings.
