Scarce and very desirable. These are the very first sermons of Spurgeon's published in America. Very nicely produced and accompanied by a very thin, fresh-faced engraving of Spurgeon and a biographical sketch original to the volume by E. L. Magoon.

A good + copy with some rubbing, light chips at head and base of spine, just through at corners. Solid and attractive. Early signature on ffep, ffep and frontis a bit rippled with frontis foxed as usual for this volume. From there, very solid, some sporadic foxing, a few small pencil notes. A slight, nearly undetectable ripple to block.
