“The little volume herewith presented to American-Israelites appeared anonymously, about three years ago in England...only for private circulation. Mr. Leeser, in order to render it more easy as a lesson-book, has appended headings to the various subjects... and has here and there also corrected some slight verbal inaccuracies... we only wish that many more religious works of the kind may be prepared in the vernacular for American Israelites.” (Introduction)
