A contemporary wrote an interesting note on the front cover: "Very strong ag't Littleton and very / Little against Pitt in general / Exposing the pretended Patriots." According to Walpole in 1747 "I was re-chosen in the new Parliament for Kellington in Cornwall. About the same time was published a Letter to the Tories written as I then believed by Mr. George Lyttelton who with his family had come over to Mr. Pelham. As Mr. Lyttelton had been a great enemy of and writer against my father as as Mr. Pelham had used my father and his friends extremely ill and neglected the Whigs to court the Tories I published an answer to that piece and called it a Letter to the Whigs. It was a careless performance and written in five days. At the end of the year I wrote two more Letters to the Whigs but did not publish them till April the next year when they went through three editions immediately. I had intended to suppress them but some attacks being made by the Grenvilles on Lord Chief Justice Willes an intimate friend of my father. . .

Each was meant to be posted or distributed in the street. As a group they provide proof of the ideologically riven "Left" in Berlin in the immediate aftermath of WWI. The city was eventually engulfed in bloody street combat in an attempt by these groups and affliates to establish workers' councils as a basis for a new government for Germany. Several large cities in Germany followed - all the rebellions were quickly put-down by a reactionary alliance of conservatives and military associations. The archive also includes a broadside advertisement for a Gorki play Die Feinde about the failed 1905 revolution in Russia. The best account of the KPD in post WWI Germany is H Weber Die Wandlung des Deutschen Kommunismus. unknown books
