Publisher's Synopsis
Junius Lord Chatham, And The Miscellaneous Letters Proved To Be Spurious is a book written by John Swinden and published in 1833. The book is a critical analysis of the Junius letters, which were a series of anonymous letters written to the public in the 18th century. The letters were highly influential and controversial, and many people believed that they were written by the famous politician William Pitt, who was also known as Lord Chatham. Swinden argues that the letters attributed to Lord Chatham were actually written by someone else, and that many of the other letters attributed to Junius were also spurious. He presents evidence to support his claims, including handwriting analysis and historical context. The book is an important contribution to the study of the Junius letters and their authorship. It sheds light on the controversy surrounding the letters and provides a fascinating glimpse into the political and social climate of 18th century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
