Two-volume set of sermons delivered to children at the Hebrew Orphan Asylum. Volume 1 was printed by the H. O. A. Industrial School in 1880, and Volume 2 was printed five years later, in 1885. The author, Hermann Baar, was an American educator born in Germany in 1826 and died in 1904. He held various teaching and ministerial positions before becoming the superintendent of the Hebrew Orphan Asylum of New York from 1876 to 1899. This complete two-volume set is considered scarce.
