![1796 JOHN NEWTON. 26 Sermons - First American Edition. Superb by Important Abolitionist & Hymnist.](http://specsfinebooks.com/cdn/shop/files/16CE5662-6C37-4896-900C-18B681B00775_{width}x.jpg?v=1686339980)
A very unusual to market first American edition of six sermons never preached and twenty sermons delivered at Olney by abolitionist and hymnist, John Newton.
Not a single other example on the market at the time of cataloguing.
Newton, John. Six Discourses, or Sermons, as Intended for the Pulpit. Also Twenty Sermons Preached in the Parish-Church of Olney. Philadelphia. Printed by William Young. 1796. 340pp.
Good - period example with some loss at head of spine, through at corners, consolidated and polished. Remains of label on pastedown; lacking a flyleaf and perhaps a frontis. Some stains to text and moderate foxing. Stains heavier on last few sheets. Very solid and legible.
