Sobre este artículo
Newbury, [Vermont.]: Printed by Nathaniel Coverly, near the Court-House, 1796., 1796.. Fair. - Octavo, bound in full early brown calf with simple blind rules on the spine. The leather is quite rubbed and scuffed. The pagination is as follows: viiii [i.e. ix], [i] and 11-148. The hinges are cracked and there is evidence of minor early worming to the front edge of the front pastedown. The pages are darkened and foxed with some minor staining to the front edges.
A rare Newbury, VT imprint. [Ref.: McCorison, M.A. Vermont, 387].
Although not indicated in the imprint, the book was most probably printed by Nathaniel Coverly, Junior. His father, Nathaniel Coverly, Senior, was active as a printer from 1767-1805. His son joined him in the business in 1795. Nathaniel Coverly, Jr. opened his printing office in Newbury, VT in 1796. He opened his shop near the courthouse in the hope that he would attract printing business from the lawyers and others populating that part of the city. Unfortunately, the court was moved to Chelsea in 1796. By September 1798 Coverly was trying to sell his Newbury business. An ad in the Salem Gazette read: "To be Sold, Cheap". Apart from his newspaper business it would appear that he published very few books in Newbury. According to a "Checklist of the Publications of Nathaniel Coverly and Son, 1767-1825" by Kate Van Winkle Keller, published by the American Antiquarian Society in 2008, he printed only 5 books in Newbury, Vermont.
