[ii], 78 pp. With a half-title and folding table. Octavo (6-1/2" x 3-3/4"; 16.5 x 9.5 cm). Disbound stab-stitched pamphlet.

The work, which sets forth Great Britain's position on America's complaints, was written "with access to original papers, accurate estimates, and authentic dispatches" as well as Parliamentary records (Advertisement). It was disseminated widely and went through 20 editions in Great Britain, Ireland, America and France. Its authorship is disputed. Cohen writes that "Adams makes a pursuasive [sic] case for attributing it to James MacPherson (1736-1796), a Scottish poet and translator who also served as a political writer for Lord North. It has also been attributed to Sir John Dalrymple (1726-1810) and to Henry MacKenzie and Lord George Germaine" (internal citation omitted). MacPherson is perhaps best known as the author of the Ossian Poems. See Cohen, Bibliography of Early American Law 6636. Adams, American Independence 220p. Adams, The American Controversy 75-95q.
