A propos de cet article

No illustrations. Small volume (16.5 x 10cm). NOTE: A GOOD COPY with NO COVER - BOOK BLOCK ONLY. Lacks both front & rear boards (merely unlettered leather spine with 4 raised bands remaining), ffep & first two blanks detached (but all present), unobtrusive early ink notation to title page (dated Nov. 23 1786 [?]), mild foxing throughout, otherwise a clean complete copy. Internally VG. Pagination complete with all pages present, though some page numbers incorrectly printed (30, 31, 32, 23 - - - 38, 49, 50, 51, etc.). Title page, followed by 19-176pp. RARE VOLUME. Quoting Canadian dealer Black's Fine Books (in part): "The British Library in their catalogued entry notes the presence of two variants of the imprint ('The first line of the imprint has 'And Sold'. Another edition has 'And to be Sold' ') [note: their copy reads the latter, our copy reads the former]. See ESTC Citation Nos. R224964 (006131506) & R14958 (006080775). See also Wing, Citation No. D506. Scarce in commerce.

The present volume deals chiefly with Parliament's resolution relating to whether James had forfeited, or abdicated the throne by virtue of his having discarded the 'Great Seal of the Realm' into the River Thames prior to fleeing for France, his subsequent capture at Kent, and later exile under the protection of Louis XIV of France. Ultimately, Parliament declared that: 'King James II having endeavored to subvert the constitution of the kingdom, by breaking the original contract between king and people, and, by the advice of Jesuits and other wicked persons, having violated the fundamental laws, and having withdrawn himself out of this kingdom, has abdicated the government, and that the throne is thereby vacant'.".…
