"Prepared with the assistance of bibliographer E. Millicent Sowerby, this book describes the collection of early American children's books assembled by A.S.W. Rosenbach. Nursery rhymes, adventure fiction, religious instructional books, educational books, primers, alphabets, moral tales, fables, enigmas and puzzles and many other categories are covered, arranged in chronological sequence from 1682 to 1836. For each of the 816 books Rosenbach and Sowerby provide a full collation and description, often with information about other editions, circumstances of publication, British parallels and prototypes, artists, and illustrators, writers and publishers. Includes sample quotations and facsimile illustrations as well as indexes of authors, titles, printers, and publishers and a list of printers, publishers, and booksellers."
