The 252 numbered pages of The English Read or Pieces in Prose and Verse by Lindlay Murray and M. R. Bartlett, was stereotyped, printed and published by H. and E. Phinney in 1823.

"The English Reader, Or, Pieces in Prose and Verse: Selected from the Best Writers was designed to assist young persons to read with propriety and effect, to improve their language and sentiments, and to inculcate some of the most important principles of piety and virtue."

I love how this book feels in my hands. The pages do not feel like paper of more recent books, but I do not know what kind it is. Would this be parchment? The writing on the front and back covers and the age discoloration of the pages, make it a beautiful speciman of a well used antique book. What a history this book holds! I wonder how many people actually used this book since it was published in 1823!

Measures approximately...5.75 x 3.75 x .75 inches. This wonderful books spine has issues. The front and back cover are off and there are separations between some pages and the title page has a tear. I tried to show all of the issues in the pictures.

I want you to be completely happy with your purchase! Please look at all of the pictures and if you have any questions or would like more pictures, please let me know.
