In custom cloth chemise. 2 1/2 pp. pen and ink on a folded sheet. 4to 10 x 15 3/4 inches; 250 x 400 mm. across the fold. With: <br/><br/>HORSBRUGH Thomas Deputy sheriff clerk. Autograph Letter signed "Thos. Horsbrugh" to Claud I Boswell. Cupar Scotland: 24 October 1795. 4to 10 x 15 3/4 inches; 250 x 400 mm. across the fold. 3 1/4 pp. Usual fold lines. A very good copy. <br/><br/>Torrential rains in the autumn of 1795 decimated cereal crops in the southwest of Scotland. This letter from then Sheriff of Fife Claud Irvine Boswell is an appeal for assistance sent to first Viscount Melville Henry Dundas 1742-1811. Boswell indicates as an enclosure a letter from Thomas Horsbrugh in which the deputy sheriff clerk assesses the extent of the damages in nearby Cupar. <br/><br/>Written in clear and legible late-eighteenth-century cursive hands these are interesting historical artifacts that document Boswell's extraordinary concern for public welfare: "I presume you will consider the account of the crop in this country as important from the consequences that may result therefrom if some remedy is not provided. It is not the Farmer who suffers the most from the badness of the Crop but the great body of the people the labouring poor.". unknown books

The third edition was advertised for 1 May 1769 with the announcement that ‘Mr. Boswell's Account of Corsica has been so well received by the Public that two numerous Editions of 3500 Copies have been sold within the Space of a few Months; and the Book is so highly esteemed abroad that it has been translated into the French and Dutch languages and printed at Amsterdam and Lausanne'.As Boswell proudly recorded later.it was ‘translated into Dutch German Italian and twice into French'—all within a year of its publication. Besides this there were as listed above at least three editions printed in Ireland. The Account of Corsica was a book of the hour. Many more copies of it were sold in Boswell's lifetime than of either of his great works in the biography of Johnson and it achieved abroad a much more remarkable success" Pottle.<br/><br/>Cox I pp. 138-139.

Engraved title-page large fold-out map Rothschild state 2. Half-title present. Pp. xxi xxii blank 2 contents 382 2 blank. 1 vols. 8vo. First edition in contemporary binding of Boswell's first major work - an account of his trip to Corsica and his meeting with General Pasquale Paoli leader of the Corsican independence movement. "With its reports of the gallant islanders and a Plutarchan depiction of Paoli paralleled with several classical heroes An Account of Corsica was an immediate success. The work was widely read and translated stimulated great interest in Paoli and the Corsican cause brought its author wide fame in Britain and Europe and found an interested readership among the Americans. It attracted the notice of the French government which had a translation made and though Boswell's ambition for British intervention was not to be fulfilled he probably influenced Britain's decision to send secret supplies of arms to the Corsicans" ODNB.
