88pp, partly untrimmed, disbound. Scattered foxing, institutional rubberstamp in blank margin at head of title page. Good+. Howes calls the 1798 Boston printing, with a slightly different title, the first edition. It has sometimes been attributed to Alexander Hamilton. Tracy was a Connecticut Federalist, outraged by the conduct of James Monroe, Washington's ambassador to France, who sought to undermine the Jay Treaty with England and argued that deteriorating American-French relations were caused by American, not French, conduct. Tracy's Reflections "was an able, cynical, partisan criticism that had force as a campaign document." DAB. Howes T326. Gaines 98-56. Evans 34675. XVIII DAB 624.
