What Our Customers Say...
Description
First Edition, Very Scarce
The first edition of this work bound in paper wraps, though lacking the front of the wrap.
This political pamphlet was written anonymously by the barrister, politician and novelist Robert Plumer Ward (1765-1846), in support of William Pitt the Younger against Henry Addington's administration.
This pamphlet was prompted by the anonymously written A Few Cursory Remarks upon the State of Parties (1803) by Thomas Richard Bentley. Ward wrote in response to this pamphlet, and in response to Ward, John Adolphus wrote A Letter to Robert Ward, Esq., M.P. (1804), setting off a pamphlet war.
