Noah Webster’s First Edition of an American Dictionary of the English Language Book

Noah Webster’s 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language was produced during the years when the American home church and school were established upon a Biblical and patriotic basis. Webster made important contributions to an American educational system which kept the nation on a Christian Constitutional course for many years. It is not surprising therefore that the 1828 American Dictionary should contain the greatest number of Biblical definitions given in any reference volume. Webster considered education useless without the Bible and while he cautioned against too extensive use of the Bible in schools as tending to irreverence he reiterated In my view the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children under a free government ought to be instructed… No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people.The dust jacket if present may be marked and have considerable heavy wear or might be missing.
