Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The History of the Indian Wars in New England: From the First Settlement to the Termination of the War With King Philip in 1677 The Book-stores of Boston then afforded no other Copy of that always popular Work, and this I purchased of Mr. Joseph Bumstead, a Printer, then a second-hand Bookseller, on the Corner of Wilson´s Lane and State Street, up Stairs. Not long after I was possessed of this Copy of Hubbard, I found a perfect Copy of the original (Boston) Edition in the Hands of my Friend, Mr. John Farmer, at Concord, N. H. On communicating my Object of republishing Hubbard to Mr. Farmer, he highly approved of it, and loaned me the Copy in his keeping to enable me to correct my Copy by it. I immediately set about making mine conform to the Other, and soon found I had undertaken a very serious Job; and that to have made a complete Copy of the Original would have required much less Labor than the Corrections I was obliged to make. Parts were transposed. Words and Phrases altered, Lines left out, and, in short, it was a shocking offence to Lovers of decent Printing, and an unpardonable Sin against one of the best Writers of New-England. However, I made my Copy conform, in all literary Respects, to the Original. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
