He wrote fourteen popular textbooks, mainly on mathematics, geography and spelling. Many of these books were used in the British colonies in North America. Fenning was a consummate teacher, and his books are pedagogically structured to guide learners into their subjects. One of his first writing ventures was the 1751 The Young Algebraist s Companion, which was warmly received by the British public. A handy mercantile tool for trading goods and merchandise printed for the publisher and economist Mathew Carey (1760-1839). These reckoners were extremely popular in early America. They were an essential tool in trades of every sort. First published in 1793, this is an early American edition. RAREA1798BIJN - 12/22 FORN-TUB-0077-BB-2504-HKREV818.

12mo, (157x89mm), xii,[272]p. slightly spotted. Original canvas, edges rubbed and the boards almost detached, preserved in a modern custom-made solander box. Rare, Estc records only two copies of this edition. Furthermore, the copy which is here offered is in the original binding of canvas thus presenting an example of an early development in non-leather binding materials; and which may be seen as a precursor of later cloth edition binding. Canvas was first introduced as a binding material in the early 1770s and continued in occasional use as a sturdy and serviceable alternative to sheepskin for publications such as school textbooks and 'working books such as this, into the early decades of the 19th century. Surprisingly, this not insignificant development in bookbinding history has received very little attention. Douglas Leighton contributed an essay on the subject to The Library (Series 4 vol. 3, 1948-9, 39-49), but other than short notices, almost in passing, in Middleton's History of English craft bookbinding technique and David Pearson's English bookbinding styles, it has passed virtually unnoticed in the literature of the subject. Leighton notes that a coarse canvas made from flax, though not specifically manufactured for the bookbinder but sufficiently well suited to his purposes, he also points to the hazards of accurate dating of such bindings due to the practice of binding up copies of an edition as sales demanded; however, we feel confident that the copy here offered is in the original binding. The damage to the binding is not without its advantages as it enables on to see that, unusually for this style of binding, the sections are sewn on two alum-tawed thongs which are let into the boards. Since the binding is so interesting in its own right, we have elected not to have any restoration work done as this would affect the integrity of the book, and have therefore had an archival solander box made to house, and preserve, this example of a not inconsiderable development in bookbinding style.

First Edition. 8vo, pp.[2], xii, [264], with an initial advertisement and 'certificate' leaf with a woodcut facsimile signature of the editor; a good copy in contemporary buckram, somewhat rubbed and soiled.First edition thus, edited by the mathematician and almanack-maker Joseph Moon of Salisbury. Daniel Fenning (1714/151767) was the author of many textbooks covering spelling, grammar, geography, and practical mathematics. His Ready Reckoner was first published in 1757 and much reprinted like many of his books, it had wide currency in America, where it also had several printings in German. Joseph Moon (d.1817) published a Salisbury-printed almanack from the late 1770s. Here he claims to have 'bestowed extraordinary labour on correcting this useful book', recalculating every sum. ESTC records five copies only, two of which in the UK (BL and Leeds, the former wanting the first leaf) and three in the US (American Antiquarian Society, Wesleyan, and Yale). ESTC T133351.
