London: n.p., 1790. First edition. Hardcover. Very good. 8vo. 262pp. Half leather, marbled paper boards. Rebacked, gilt spine title, else a very good copy. Almon was an English bookseller and publisher. In 1758 he began printing books and pamphlets critical of the government and in particular King George III. He printed the 1775 Philadelphia Congressional Proceedings, and Paine's Common Sense. He was imprisoned for libel. And prosecuted for printing a letter by the mysteious Junius, for which he was found guilty. These remembrances, including a transcript of the trial, are contained in this volume and even a letter from Benjamin Franklin. The Memoirs is considered valuable for the political history of 18th century England and of the American Revolution as well as freedom of the press. Some contemporary notes on the preliminary pages, and the engraved bookplate of David F. Day of Buffalo, NY. Usiana A-181; Sabin 954. Scarce.
