1787Best.-Nr. LLL-0341-401Printed for J. Debrett opposite Burlington-House 1787-01-01. Leather Bound. Very Good. 1787 fourth edition 'Printed for J. Debrett opposite Burlington-House Piccadilly London 5 1/4 x 8 1/2 inches tall hardbound marbled boards over black cloth spine 4 50 pp. With a half-title. Minor rubbing to covers. Staining to half title page and slight foxing to title. Otherwise a very good copy - clean bright and unmarked - of an important eighteenth century political pamphlet. Reference: ESTC No. T82992. ~LLL~ A stinging rebuke to the lambasting in print of the Prince of Wales the future King George IV in a pamphlet entitled 'A Short Review of the Political State of Great Britain' which had been published anonymously in January 1787 by author Nathaniel William Wraxall 1751-1831 and which had attracted a great deal of attention and sales. Within a few days after publication of the 'court pamphlet' six editions each consisting of 1000 or 1500 copies were sold and the publisher Debrett which also issued this response estimated the total sales of the English edition it was also translated into French at 17000 copies. Authorship of this reply is sometimes attributed to Irish-born British politician and pamphleteer Sir Philip Francis the supposed author of the 'Letters of Junius' and the chief antagonist of Warren Hastings 1732-1818. Francis' accusations against Hastings led to the Impeachment of Warren Hastings by Parliament which has been described as 'probably the British Isles' most famous certainly the longest political trial.' In the introduction to Wraxall's posthumous memoirs editor Henry Wheatley comments 'Wraxall says that the Prince of Wales sent repeatedly to Debrett the publisher peremptorily demanding to know from him the name of the author and menacing him with prosecution for libel. If this was the case it seems probable that the secret of the authorship was well kept for a few years after Wraxall was on friendly terms with the Prince of Wales and it is scarcely probable that the Prince suspected the authorship of the pamphlet.

Best.-Nr. 3734846N.p. n.d. ca. 1880s–1890s. 10¼ x 7¼ inches. Printed via a photomechanical process. A very good example. This broadside poem voices the imagined last words of a dying Union soldier held at Camp Sumter more widely known as Andersonville. The text is set in display type with decorative borders and features a central image of a flag-bearing Zouave soldier rendered in a style simulating a wood engraving. The anonymous verse describes thirst starvation and emotional torment portraying the prison as a “cruel rebel den.” It emphasizes separation from home appeals for letters and rescue and ends with a vision of death as release. The soldier dreams of water“green fields in which to roam” and peace beyond the “Dead Line”—a reference to the real boundary in Andersonville beyond which prisoners were shot. Poems like this circulated widely in the decades following the war reinforcing narratives of Confederate cruelty and the martyrdom of Union soldiers. Likely produced in the 1880s or 1890s using a photo-mechanical process this piece reflects the ongoing work of remembrance in the North through inexpensive printed ephemera. Curiously the broadside is printed on a single sheet of paper with a soft matte vermilion-pink wash applied only to the verso. Unrecorded in OCLC. unknown
