    Description/Abstract:
    1833 printing. The author is not credited by name on the title page, but it does say "by the author of Lessons on Objects." The preface is signed by C. Mayo. A continuation of Lessons on Objects designed to teach students to observe natural features and command a small vocabulary of scientific terms. The few pages available demonstrate the question/answer technique of a Pestalozzian school and a couple includes examples of the text's illustrations, "ten plates, drawn from nature," advertised on the title page. The Schultz Archive's copy includes the preface, lessons one (on mollusca) and two pages of illustrations.
