According to Sabin, Knox was the deputy Secretary of State for America. "He gives in these state papers some anecdotes relative to the American War, and to the great revolution which it produced; a scheme for establishing episcopacy in Nova Scotia, and various plans relative to public matters." A most interesting work for its insights into the ministerial side of the Revolution, for Knox is free in his criticism of other members of the government. There is also material of Canadian interest for Nova Scotia and early mail communications. SABIN 38181. TPL, p.145. ESTC T92832. Modern three-quarter calf and marbled boards, spine gilt. Modern bookplate on front pastedown. Inscribed on fly leaf: "From the Author." Quite clean internally. Very good plus.
