AnonymousA LETTER OF CONDOLENCE AND CONGRATULATION FROM ANTICHRIST TO JOHN BULL; AND THE ANSWER.
London: Printed for the Author, at No. 9, Thornhaugh Street, 1795. 16pp. Printed self-wrappers, untrimmed. Upper margin rather frayed and dusty, sewing perished, still a good copy. Item #WRCLIT65729
First and only edition. A political screed - the "antichrist" being the Pope - and the letter drips with irony in its perfumed invective against the likes of Burke, Paine, and the radicals of France. A prefatory poem is signed "W.H." A scarce tract: ESTC locates copies only at the BL and the Huntington. ESTC T37993. GOLDSMITHS 16480.
Price: $250.00
