Synopsis

This book collects the anonymous letters penned by 'Junius', a pseudonymous writer of the 18th century who criticized the British government and monarchy during the American Revolution. Junius's eloquent yet vicious attacks on the Duke of Grafton and other central figures of the period earned him both praise and condemnation from his contemporaries, but his true identity has never been conclusively proven. These letters sparked widespread debate and increased tensions between Britain and its American colonies, making them essential reading for anyone interested in the political history of the era.
