Add to basketPaper. Condition: Good. First Edition. An Original Letter Written and Signed by Thomas Babington Macaulay. Dated 1838. Letter reads - My dear Sir, I shall not be able to attend the Board on Tuesday. Very truly yours, TB Macaulay' Thomas Babington Macaulay, 1st Baron Macaulay, 1800 - 1859 was a British historian and Whig politici…an. He is considered primarily responsible for introducing the Western education system in India. He wrote extensively as an essayist, on contemporary and historical sociopolitical subjects, and as a reviewer. His The History of England was a seminal and paradigmatic example of Whig history, and its literary style has remained an object of praise since its publication, including subsequent to the widespread condemnation of its historical contentions which became popular in the 20th century. Size is 175mm x 110mm. Condition is good. A number of light folding creases. More images can be taken upon request. Ref16790. Signed by Author(s).
