"On the treaties with France, Spain, and the United States, and perhaps the most eloquent of Mr. Pitt's speeches" - Sabin. Given shortly after he became Chancellor of the Exchequer, this passionate and moving speech helped launch Pitt to national prominence; by the end of the year he would be Prime Minister. Final leaf verso contains printer's advertisements, including both Henry Clinton's NARRATIVE of the Cornwallis campaign, and Cornwallis' response. AMERICAN CONTROVERSY 83-74. SABIN 63096. 20th-century blue paper wrappers. Light soiling. Scattered foxing and tanning. Very good in all.
