About This Item
No place (United Kingdom ?), no publisher, no date (ca. 1880's per OCLC). First & only edition. 12mo (7" x 5"), 76 pages. Publisher's gilt-lettered blue cloth over flexible boards. Recorded by OCLC but not located (accession number 4263946).
Ex-library (deaccessioned) with call number label on the upper cover, bookplate, rubber stamped markings, etc., modest edge wear, front cover warped, cloth a bit soiled & lightly stained, offsetting at endpapers, otherwise good or better.
The title page reflects author as "Edmund Burke," which is a pseodonym for anonymous Irishman "who has lived in Scotland for over thirty years" (p. 47). The contents, in fact, are not a speech but a 48-page political manifesto condemning rebellion and anarchy, sandwiched between two sections of verse regarding the proper behavior of a civilized, respectful, religious, dutiful nation.
