Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Dean Swift
For reward, the Premier offered him money, which Swift refused with scorn; with ?attery, which also failed; with power; which Swift accepted, taking the helm of State into his own hands. In the eloquent language of The London Times, Swift was the Government; Swift was the Queen, the Lords and the Commons. And had Anne listened less to back stair in?uence, Swift had died a spiritual Peer.
