In den Warenkorbsometime folded, first page a little dust-soiled, outer leaves part separated, pp. 8, 8vo, uncut, self wrappers, good. A rambling, offhand and jocular celebration of the joys of liberty in England and the ascendancy of the nation, written in the form of a letter from a young man of fashion to an elderly pessimist. 'Come, come, p…luck up old Fellow, we must have thee to the Tavern; there we will regale thee with a Spanish Olio, a a French Ragoust, and a Brace of bright Champaign'. This covers the Spanish Succession, Treaty of Utrecht, refortification of Dunkirk, and (rather disingenuously) the disinclination of the English to fight unless provoked. Bodley only in ESTC, with a further nine in WorldCat, but none in the US. (ESTC T300616).
