London: [White: Edinburgh] Printed for J. S. Jordan, [Printed for Silvester Doig],, 1791 & 1792. Scarce early Paine, in contemporary tract volume Sixth London edition of Paine's Rights of Man (the year of first publication), bound with the first and only edition of White's Rational Freedom, a scarce and impassioned condemnation of Paine, in a volume of five political works.
