In near fine condition. An exceptional piece of history. The anti-slavery movement to abolish the slave trade became popular among the British public following barrister Lord Mansfield's judgement in the Somersett's Case which held that slavery was unsupported by the common law in England and Wales. In 1807 Parliament passed the Slave Trade Act of 1807 which outlawed the slave trade but not slavery itself. Over two decades later in 1833 the Slavery Abolition Act was passed which made the purchase or ownership of slaves illegal within the British Empire and provided monetary compensation for previous slave owners.

1812réf. 166835London: Rymer & Son 1812. Mapping the Age of Revolutions This visually arresting and minutely detailed chronology presents two concentric spirals radiating from a central portrait of George III offering a spectacular timeline of a half-century of conflict embellished with portraits of the king Pitt Fox Nelson and Wellington. The inner delineates the "various administrations formed during his reign" while the outer charts major events including the conclusion of the Seven Years War the American Revolution the Napoleonic Wars campaigns in South Asia and the opening salvoes of the War of 1812. The densely printed text also includes relevant statistical information particularly as relates to the major campaigns: numbers of troops under arms sailors at sea prisoners taken cost of supplies but also the funded national debt annual expenditure and ticking steadily throughout the price of a peck loaf. In each corner is a portrait of a hero of the period: "In an age abounding with so many Warriors & Senators whose equals the page of History can scarcely produce it is difficult to select the most suitable characters to adorn this design or those who have been most active in the great Events of our own times but none seem to have diffused the rays of glory with greater splendour round the nation than Nelson and Wellington. Fame will transmit to distant posterity the vigorous eloquence of Fox and Pitt & exhibit them as patterns worthy their imitation. The portraits are esteemed striking likenesses". Produced by the Edinburgh-born engraver and reform-leaning Whig Malcolm Rymer 1775-1835 the timing of the publication produced close on the removal of all restrictions on the powers of the Prince Regent and the catastrophist litany of disorder in 1812 - "Alarming Riots in Nottinghamshire Lancashire and Yorkshire" the assassination of Spencer Percival "The Old Administration continues with a few trivial changes" - suggests critical intent. Copper engraving printed on vivid yellow silk "handkerchief" 840 x 860 mm. Elaborate decorative frame comprised of a narrow chequered band enclosing a wide scrolled foliate border set with the Royal Arms centrally top and bottom and the Imperial State Crown with crossed rose and thistle with banderolle reading"dieu et mon droit" placed at the sides.

160 p. 16mo. Original full leather binding. With a contemporary (American?) printed label: "WILLIAM NICHOLS Requests any person who may borrow this Book, to return it as soon as possible." With Nichols' manuscript ownership and additional manuscript presentations of Dr. L. Armstrong. Mark Akenside was a famed English poet and physician. His chief literary work was the didactic poem The Pleasures of Imagination (1744). Among his other works are the neoclassical Odes on Various Subjects (1745) and the Epistle to Curio (1744), a vigorous political satire. Akenside's conversion to Tory principles at the accession of George III earned him the appointment of Physician to the Queen. The early ownerships and label are especially interesting.

1807réf. 18934215 July 1807. Diplomatic deals in the Napoleonic Wars A royal warrant signed by George III at the head ordering the application of the Great Seal to the Convention of Subsidy between Great Britain and Sweden signed at Stralsund on 23 June 1807. The document is countersigned on the second page by the Foreign Secretary George Canning later prime minister. The warrant orders the Great Seal be affixed to two instruments "containing our Ratifications of a Treaty concluded & signed at Stralsund on the 23d Day of June last between us and our good brother the King of Sweden by our respective plenipotentiaries". Annexed to the document are manuscript copies of the instruments. Sweden joined Britain in the war against Napoleon in 1805 in the Treaty of Bäckaskog. In early 1807 France launched an offensive against Swedish Pomerania and by June Swedish forces were weakening. Canning saw Pomerania as the only viable base for continental military operations against Napoleon and agreed in the treaty of 23 June to provide British subsidies to Swedish troops. The Swedes nevertheless capitulated in August. Britain reinforced Sweden in 1808 as France's allies entered the war against her but in 1809 King Gustav IV was deposed and in 1810 Sweden aligned with France and declared war on Britain. Folio 309 x 197 mm. 10 leaves: 2-page warrant followed by 16-page treaty blank page and final page with docket title all in manuscript; blind-impressed paper seal mounted over George III signature sewn with blue thread paper watermarked 1805.
