175635625London 1756. 76 and 70 pp. This is one of the more tragic episodes in British naval history. On his way to relieve the garrison on Minorca during the Seven Years War Byng was surprised by the French fleet. After an indecisive engagement with the French he retreated without being able to resupply the garrison. Byng thought he was doing what he needed to protect his ships but public and official opinion were against him. He was found guilty of dereliction of his duties. By the law of the day this was a capital crime and he was executed despite appeals for clemency from people in power. See DNB. NMM V part 1 1168. The two pamphlets dating from the time of the event were written in support of Byng. Appeal is missing the bottom of the last leaf with no loss of text. Further Particulars has a dark smudge at the top of the title page. Both are otherwise in very good condition removed from larger volumes and both are scarce in the trade. Appeal presently appears online for $1500. Particulars for $750. Both pamphlets unknown books
