This is a later edition 1786 of the collected letters of "Junius" first published in 1772. "Junius' poured brilliantly slanderous invective upon Tory-minded English ministers especially the Duke of Grafton for a series of inconsistent measures which allegedly ruined England and drove the colonies 'into excesses little short of rebellion.' Vehement lucid frequently reprinted in English and colonial newspapers the letters were polemical masterpieces with such extraordinary knowledge and appreciation of contemporary colonial opinion that they lent moral support to the early revolutionary cause. 'Junius' opposed the Tea Duty but upheld the legality of the Stamp Act and prophesied Dec. 19 1769 that the colonies aimed at independence" - Dictionary of American History. .

17926457London: A. Hamilton. Good with No dust jacket as issued. 1792. First Edition Thus. First Printing. Leather. Two full leather volumes spines in six compartments separated by gilt borders and decoration gilt lettering on red labels in one compartment. Junius is the pseudonym of the still unidentified author of a series of letters contributed to Henry Sampson Woodfall's Public Advertiser a popular English newspaper of the day between January 21 1769 and January 21 1772. Junius' aims were to discredit the ministries of the Duke of Grafton and subsequently of Lord North and to draw attention to the political influence of George III who was trying to establish his own "personal government" by selecting his ministers from a group of subservient friends. Junius used ferocious sarcasm in attacking the public and private lives of Grafton and his associates the Duke of Bedford the Earl of Bute and Lord Mansfield. Finally in his 35th letter he attacked King George himself causing a storm of indignation and prompting the government in 1770 to unsuccessfully prosecute the printer Woodfall for seditious libel for having printed the letter. Junius' views were those of a radical Whig and an ardent supporter of William Pitt Earl of Chatham who had been succeeded in office by Grafton in 1768. But Junius failed in his aims for the ineffectual Grafton's fall in 1770 merely signaled the advent of Lord North's ministry. Apart from their significance as a literary controversy and their importance in the history of the freedom of the press Junius' letters are notable for their style and the unsolved mystery of their authorship. They display little stylistic variety and their tone hardly ever changes from that of sustained personal invective and of bitter merciless sarcasm but the writing has a fine boldness and liveliness an urgency and blunt eloquence that still arrest the reader. Many attempts to discover Junius' identity have been made including claims for Sir Philip Francis the chief candidate; William Petty-Fitzmaurice 2nd Earl of Shelburne later 1st Marquess of Lansdowne; and Laughlin Macleane who was Shelburne's undersecretary. Some 45 other candidates have been proposed less convincingly. Current opinion favors Sir Philip Francis.
