It was this gentleman (Thomas Jarrold) who was the originator of the "Household Tracts", of which the firm have sold several millions.
And does "several millions" mean the number of "House Tracts" sold?
@kkfengdao,
Google research
suggests this is a book of domestic proverbs referencing such sources as the bible.
e.g.
Quote:Laziness brings on deep sleep, and the shiftless man goes hungry.
Proverbs 19:15
...and yes, you are correct about the number sold.
