First American edition of J. A. Kalb's German translation of Spinoza's *Tractatus Theologico-Politicus*. Published in Philadelphia by Kiderlen & Stollmeyer in 1838. The book contains a preface (pp. [iii]-xlviii), and the main text (pp. 432). It is an 8vo volume in contemporary boards. The copy shows evidence of prior library ownership and some browning. This is notable for being the first Spinoza work printed in America, in German rather than English. Previous German editions were published in 1805, 1806, 1826, and later.
