Notes
"To those young ladies and gentlemen who are good, and merit praise; and also to those who, by a contrary conduct, prove there is room for reformation in them, this book ... is most humbly dedicated ..." -- p. [9] at beginning.
At foot of t.p.: [Price 6d.].
Frontispiece (p. [2] at beginning) appears to have been printed with the sheets.
Hugo, T. Bewick (suppl.), p. xvi, attributes this publication to John Marshall, but internal evidence suggests that Marshall is not the publisher.
Illustrations are copies of those by Bewick in earlier Newbery and Harris ed. of this work (e.g., PML 82151, 82150).
Illustrations partly hand-colored by previous owner.
Imprint reads: London: Printed in the year 1790.
Preface signed: S.J.; frequently attributed to Stephen Jones.
