Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Dissertation on the Gipsies: Being an Historical Enquiry, Concerning the Manner of Life, Family OEconomy, Customs and Conditions of These People in Europe, and Their Origin

For the (pace of between three and four hundred years, they have-gone wandering about, like. Pilgrims and firan-f gers: they are found, in cal'cern and wefiern countries, as well. Among the rude as civilifed, indolent and aé'tive people; yet they remain ever, and every where, what their fathers. Were Gipfies. Africa makes them no blacker, nor Europe whiter; they neither.
