London, 1755. Two volumes, 228 and 296pp, preceded by 60pp of dedication and preface. Battista Ageloni may be a pseudonymn for Voltaire or Dr. John Shebbeare (1709-1788) who "translated" from the original Italian and was the author of "The Marriage Act a Novel" mentiioned on the title page. Some say Shebbeare himself was the Jesuit 'Angeloni." These letters are a attempt to compare French and English political policies and sound very much like the political rhetoric one hears 250 years later. For instance, Letter XXVIII: "Liberty more talked of and less understood..." or XXXIV: "Churches agree on anathematizing one another." Rebacked full leather with gilt decorated spines. Small 8vo's. First edition. Covers soiled and worn on corners. Foxing primarily on inside covers and free endpapers. Not pretty but tight. Good.. First Edition. Full-Leather.
