Language: English
Notes: The introductory page of text addressed to Mr. Holt is signed A.B. Rosenbach 53, Bristol 3435 (under 1772), Evans 14461 (under 1775). The Jewish content has been studied by Samuel Oppenheim, "The Chapters of Isaac the Scribe: A Bibliographic Rarity, New York, 1772," in Publications of the American Jewish Historical Society, no. 22 (1914), pp. 39-51. His findings, however, are based on the text, signed "A. B.," as printed in installments in Holt’s New York Journal or General Advertiser beginning on Sept. 10, 1772; Oppenheim never located a copy of this pamphlet nor did Rosenbach.
