Title

William Herbert; OR, Religion at School.

Description

This book was a part of the John Fontaine book collection. It was gifted to him by his Aunt Susan on September 11, 1849. It was originally written for the American Sunday-School Union. It is considered a children's book with a storyline about a young boy named William Herbert, who is introduced to the Christian faith after experiencing various troubles while away at boarding school. The physical book remains intact, featuring a marbled hardcover. The spine has a lot of wear, resulting in the seams of the pages being visible on the exterior and causing the book to be in a fragile condition.
