Fidler, Rev. Isaac

Observations on Professions, Literature, Manners, and Emigration, in the United States and Canada

New York City, J. & J. Harper, 1833. First edition. Hardcover. pp. viii, 247,12mo. Rebound in auburn cloth about 50 years ago, there are several small water stains on the front board, some sl. edge wear and corner rubbing, and a small water stain to the top right corner (not affecting text) of pp. 33 to 95, and again in the final pages. The publishers have appended an eight-page listing of their books, following the text. Overall, in generally good, or good plus, condition. Observations by Fidler, presented 'in the form of conversations on the several points of his inquiries, with known or named individuals, whose nativity to the Transatlantic soil, or long residence in the country, may entitle their statements to respect.' Book I contains conversations on topics relevant to emigration to the United States. Book II contains conversations on Canada. (Howes F.110, see Watters p. 614 and Waterston p. 56 - 'anecdotal, witty, this sharply focused book belies its ponderous title'. Not in Peel or Lande). .
