Descrizione

8vo., on laid paper, tiny contemporary signature on title; contemporary calf, boards moderately age-marked and scuffed, expertly rebacked in calf to style with new label, a remarkably crisp, clean copy. With the pictorial nineteenth-century bookplate of Betty Withycombe on front paste-down. This pro-Jacobite tract, presented in the form of letters, was written by Bolingbroke in 1735 whilst in exile in France. Purporting originally to come from the minutes of Humphrey Oldcastle, this attribution is omitted from the current edition. The dedication to Walpole is signed Caleb D'Anvers, pseudonym of Nicholas Amhurst, primary contributor to the Whig periodical 'The Craftsman' which was founded and funded by Bolingbroke in 1726. EXTREMELY SCARCE.
