I try to restrain myself, but I really have very limited capacity to resist early school books that teem with the presence of those who owned them long ago. And even more so when the manifestation of that presence is a full page of heavily inked fraktur writing as here--quite a declaration of ownership by Piero Strassburger on the date of February 5, 1835 (and I love seeing the "anno domini" Latin.) The book itself appears to be quite a scarce one too--an 1831 copy of John Rose's The United States Arithmetician or the Science of Arithmetic Simplied, published in Philadelphia, for the author. If you love early mensuration (maths) notebooks as I do, this is a nice companion as one like this provided the basis for the work carried out in ones like that. I documented just a few pages, which give a sense -- sections on "fellowship" and "vulgar fractions" and extractions of roots and all that sort of thing, and lots about different types of measures, gold values, etc.,  with word problems requiring complex calculations that tell quite a lot about the times.

4 1/2 x 6 7/8, 180 pages. Board covers with hand-marbled paper, leather spine, holding together well. Light foxing/toning to the pages all the way through as documented and a few larger stains and notes here and there.
