- The book is soft covered, six inches by seven inches. On the cover it says Moses Seixas-his book, December 3, 1755. There is writing from a later date in pencil on the cover but it is virtually illegible. At the top of the cover it says "My grandfather, Rebecca Phillips." On the cover is also a picture of a profile of a man. There are twelve drawings in this book, each on its own page. The first three drawings are of trees, one contains color and the others are in pencil. The next five drawings are of various houses and their surroundings. Most of the works are in gray and one contains a small amount of brown writing. The next three pictures are of animals and have brown, green, gray and yellow writing. The last picture is small, in numerous colors, of a house and the land around it. There are several blank pages at the end of the book.
