Description
1736. (AMERICAN REVOLUTION) [GORDON, Thomas and TRENCHARD, John]. The Independent Whig: Or, a Defence of Primitive Christianity, and of Our Ecclesiastical Establishment, against the Exorbitant Claim and Encroachments of Fanatical and Disaffected Clergymen. London: Printed for J. Peele… and Sold by J. Osborn, 1736. Two volumes. 12mo, contemporary full speckled calf, raised bands, renewed red morocco spine labels. $1200.Early edition of this pioneering and influential work by Thomas Gordon and John Trenchard, ""the foremost libertarian thinkers of the early 18th century,"" who through these essays published in 1719-20 as an attack on the High Church party, and their subsequent contributions to the London Journal and the British Journal—known as Cato's Letters—directly influenced many of the founding fathers, including writers such as Franklin, Dickinson, Livingstone, Adams and Zenger.""Trenchard's popular publications were those he produced in collaboration with Thomas Gordon… Gordon always celebrated Trenchard, his 'best Tutor' (Cato's Letters), and Trenchard's wealth probably underwrote the beginning of what proved to be an unrivalled success in the annals of early journalism. The Independent Whig, which appeared on Wednesdays from 20 January 1720 and ran for almost a year, censured what Gordon, Trenchard, and a third contributor—perhaps Anthony Collins—considered the ubiquitous and corrupt influence of high-church clerics propagating false divinity from their sacerdotal thrones… The Wednesday Whig and the Saturday missive [i.e., Cato's Letters] enjoyed immediate success, and repeated book-form printings of the Independent Whig and Cato's Letters during the 18th century, speak of an enduring reputation. Readers on both sides of the Atlantic and in the salons of continental philosophes found in these publications resonant rhetoric to sound their own causes"" (ODNB). In the course of American political development during the 18th century, Trenchard and Gordon were ""the foremost libertarian thinkers of the early 18th century"" (Bailyn, The Press & the American Revolution, 66). ""A number of these papers were originally published in December 1719, at the time of the rejection of the Peerage Bill"" (Sowerby). First published in periodical form from 1719-20, and collected in book form in 1723; ""sixth edition"" stated on title page. Includes all 74 numbers of The Independent Whig; Volume II adds some related letters, sermons, and responses to sermons, delivered in 1731-33. Includes a sermon entitled ""The Craftsmen,"" at the rear of Volume II, with separate title page (stating ""sixth edition""), and a verse tribute to John Trenchard. Lowndes, 916. Sowerby 2739 (Jefferson owned a mixed edition from 1753). Early owner ink signature to title pages.Interiors quite clean; short wormtrails to first few leaves of Volume II. Short split to rear joint of Volume II, bindings quite sound. A desirable, extremely good copy in contemporary calf.

Oxford: The Arcadian Library and the Oxford University Press, 2006. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good +/very good. First Edition. Hardcover. 13 7/8" X 9 3/4". Volumes I and II are bound in red cloth over boards, stamped in gilt, with black and white pictorial dust jackets. Mild shelfwear to dust jackets and bindings, firm and sound. Volume III is a large folded map within a matching slipcase. Folding map in excellent condition; slipcase is edgeworn and bumped, with some very tiny tears at extremities. All pages are clean, bright, and unmarked. A very presentable first edition set, complete in three volumes, of this stunning textual and pictorial exploration of 16th century Venice from The Arcadian Library. ABOUT THIS SET: In 1549 a Venetian printmaker, Matteo Pagano, published a large engraving of an aerial view of the city of Cairo; it was accompanied by a Latin text ("Descriptio Alchiriae") written by the orientalist scholar, Guillaume Postel. The depiction of the city is sufficiently accurate to permit a detailed interpretation of the city to be made, and it remained the standard western representation of this fabled eastern city for the next 250 years. Nicholas Warner provides a context for Pagano's view of Cairo, a translation of Postel's text, and a commentary on the contents of the engraving itself in addition to the accompanying narrative. An index of subsequent revisions, and a superbly produced enhanced facsimile of the engraving itself is included. Volume 1 (208 pages) includes 36 large color plates, 5 black-and-white plates, and a modern facsimile of the original Latin text "Descriptio Alchiriae"; Volume 2 (208 pages) includes 68 black-and-white images, all details of the map. Volume 3--the map--is a "modern facsimile" of the original Map, i.e. with blemishes, etc. removed, packed in a slip case. It is the same size as the original, and folds out in a similar manner to an ordnance survey map. It is printed in two colors to match the original.
