Notes: The first American ed. appeared in Providence, 1795; this illustrated ed., however, has a plate, "In every religion there are good people" (following vol. 2, p. 122), accompanying a section about Ephraim, a Jew (vol. 2, pp. 114-20). A perfect copy has a frontispiece in each vol. This title may be the earliest American imprint with an illustration of a contemporary Jew, as suggested by Michael Zinman, Nov. 14, 1990, letter to R. Singerman. Evans 31156.
