- Hardcover
NY: Kirk & Mercein, 1818. 8vo. 300pp. Portrait frontispiece, folding facsimiles. Original boards (rubbed, corners and edges worn) rebacked with paper, new paper spine label. Very good untrimmed copy. First American edition, from the second English edition, corrected and enlarged. The author makes the case for Sir Phillip Francis (see DNB for a long article with relevant discussion to this work). Junius, writing 1769-1772, was the pseudonym of a "well-informed Whig who poured brilliantly slanderous invective upon Tory-minded English ministers for a 'series of inconsistent measures' which allegedly ruined England and drove the colonies into excesses little short of rebellion" (DNB). American Imprints 45845.
