New York: n.p., 1925. First edition. Paperback Original. Very Good. 5 x 7 1/8 inches. 257 pages with 7 full page photographic illustrations. Contains interesting contemporary reports on missionary efforts among Indians in South Dakota, "Industrial Education" and ministries among foreigners, boys and girls. Bound in original blue cardstock which is lightly soiled. From the library of the family of Samuel Hart. From the library of the family of Samuel Hart, which experienced a fire that damaged a number of books. As a result, items from Hart's library are extremely rare. Samuel Hart (1845-1917) was dean of the Berkeley Divinity School, the (un)official "middle way" seminary of the Episcopal Church at Middletown, Connecticut. In 1886, he became the third custodian of the Standard Book of Common Prayer. In 1892, he became secretary of the House of Bishops. In 1898, he became the fourth historiographer of the Episcopal Church. He served in all three of these offices until his death. (In 1893, he was elected Bishop of Vermont, but he declined the office.) A unique association copy.
