Brooks issued a response to this in 1851, spurred by the unsuccessful attempt to set aside Boott's will, which named Lowell as his estate's executor. An interesting example of individuals feuding by way of printed and publicly circulated documents, which was common in the 19th century. N° de réf. du vendeur 2324137
