Notes:

"Vol. I" cancelled on t.p.

Three letters only are contained in this vol. The printer's "advertisement" at end states: "We shall surcease printing these letters till there be a number sufficient to make up a just volume." Probably no more printed.

This appears to be a translation of Chèvremonts' La connoissance du monde, ou, l'Art de bien élever la jeunesse, pour les divers états de la vie, Paris, 1694.
