Plymouth: E Nettleton (1825) xxi, xiii 210 pp.
Prepared by Michael Steer
The author was born, in very humble circumstances, at Plymouth in 1804. His early life was spent among scenes of misery and degradation. He was early admitted to the Plymouth Workhouse. In 1823 he left, and was employed at the Plymouth Library, He then went to Exeter as assistant to a dentist, and then to London, as a printer in connection with the Church Missionary Society. In 1827 he was sent to Malta by the Society, to disseminate tracts in various languages. Then to Russia, Turkey and Egypt, and returned to England in 1833. Acting with Mr. Charles Knight, the well-known publisher of cheap serials, he assisted in compiling the Penny Magazine and the Penny Cyclopaedia. The only memorial to Kitto in his native town of Plymouth is a tablet on a stone on the site of his birth place, Seven Stars Lane. This rare book was produced from a digital copy held by the Bodleian Library that can be downloaded from Google Books. Those on which copyright has expired are available for free educational and research use, both as individual books and as full collections to aid researchers.
