SELECTED FOR MISSION SERVICES

SNEPP, Charles B.. Songs of grace and glory for mission services, &c. &c. Selected from the full edition of 1025 hymns. Enlarged, with appendix.

London. James Nisbet Sixty-third Thousand.
16mo in 8s. 160pp. Original publisher's mauve printed wrappers. Slightest of creasing to extremities, else a fine copy of a fragile production.
A rare, apparently unrecorded selection of 202 hymns, specifically designed for mission services, from Charles Snepp’s popular Victorian hymnal Songs of Grace & Glory for Private, Family, & Public Worship (London, 1872). Prices to the upper wrapper suggest that this was available in three formats, with this unsophisticated edition in printed wrappers priced at 3d.

Unrecorded by OCLC and COPAC, both however record one copy each of what would appear to be an appendix of this work (dated 1874 and c.1875 respectively), at Columbia University, New York, and the BL.
