A lovely bound year of an important and rare Vermont Second Great Awakening periodical that functions as a sammelband of a few other rather scarce items bound in at the rear.
The volume includes:
The Adviser; or, Vermont Evangelical Magazine, for the year 1812. Middlebury, VT. Samuel Swift. 376pp.
[bound with]
Lyman, Elijah. A Discourse delivered before the Washington Benevolent Society, at Chelsea [VT], February Twenty-Second, 1812, in Commemoration of the Birth Day of General George Washington. Windsor, VT. Alden Spooner. 1812. 20pp.
[bound with]
Fuller, Stephen. A Sermon [on the inspiration of Scripture] Preached at Chelsea, Lord's Day, March 31, 1811. Danville. Printed by Ebenezer Eaton. 1811.
[bound with]
Newton, John. Consolation Under Convictions. A Dialogue between a Penitent and Her Christian Friend; and [by Samuel Bigelow] A True Christian, Delineated under the Similitude of a Little Child. Windsor, VT. Alden Spooner. Nd. c.1810
The last volume is an important Second Great Awakening imprint of a work by John Newton designed to be distributed to those suffering under the pangs of conviction during the revivals. It is likely unique; we can trace no other example of this American Revivalist edition.
