About This Item
London, 1779.. [2],85pp. Modern paper wrappers. Minor toning to titlepage, else internally clean. Very good. Galloway, one of the most outspoken prominent Loyalists, had been very critical of General Howe and the British ministry regarding their conduct of the war following the evacuation of Philadelphia. In the present hearing Lord Germain retaliated in part, grilling Galloway for several hours and attempting to discredit him (which he succeeded in doing to some extent). Galloway himself saw his testimony as a triumph and purchased hundreds of copies. ESTC T13512. AMERICAN CONTROVERSY 79-49a. HOWES G37.
