AQ12564London: Printed for Debrett 1793 23pp 1. Disbound. Recent book-label and armorial bookplate of Robert Washington Oates to verso of title page single early manuscript correction to p.21. An account of the speech delivered by English politician Willoughby Bertie fourth Earl of Abingdon 1740-1799 at the House of Lords on Thursday April 11 1793 regarding the abolition of the slave trade. Curiously for one regarded as something of a political radical his having previously supported the American struggle for independence Abingdon viewed the potential ending of slavery as a negative development seeing attempts at limitation of the trade as a troublesome compromise in favour of Jacobinism. Indeed Abingdon voted against motions to restrict the trade on two occasions both in 1792 and 1799.

17632979081763. very good. British Music composer and patron of the arts; who later as a political writer rigorously defended the liberties of the American Colonies in contrast to his close friend Earl of Suffolk. His brother-in-law introduced him to Johann Christian Bach and Carl Friedrich Abel and he was subsequently very involved in their careers. From 1791-1795 he became a patron of Franz Joseph Haydn and is often acknowledged as having contributed greatly to the composers success. In the political arena Abingdon was an outspoken critic of Lord North and his Administration yet denounced the French Revolution as "A threat to World Peace"; and argued that the abolition of the Slave Trade was the result of a "New Philosophy" inspired by the new French Republic.
