Duelling.- Swift (Theophilus) A letter to Sir William

Item Details

Description

Duelling.- Swift (Theophilus) A letter to Sir William Augustus Brown, Bart. on a late affair of honour with Colonel Lenox; and the correspondence with the Hon. Colonel Phipps, lacking half-title, some spotting or mostly light foxing, disbound, stitched, 8vo, Printed for James Ridgway, 1789.

⁂ Scarce pamphlet relating to the duel between the author and Colonel Charles Lennox (later fourth Duke of Richmond and Lennox, and Governor General of British North America), which took place in a field off the Uxbridge road on 3rd July, 1789. This was occasioned by hostile remarks on Lennox by Swift in a pamphlet on the former's duel with the Duke of York. Swift was wounded and went on to publish 'A Letter to the King on the Conduct of Colonel Lennox', 1789.
