Additional Details

An early novel by the influential Reform rabbi. The title page is in a different setting of type than the one offered by Swann on 12 April 2018, lot 107; most notably the rules around the author's name are much further apart here, and this copy does not read "Copyright secured" although a copyright statement appears on verso. Priority is undetermined. Singerman 1607; Wright II:2777.
