VINTAGE COLLECTIBLE British Military History Biography 1st American Edition 1st Printing 1st Edition 1st Printing In Dust Jacket. "William Pitt The Younger" by Robin Reilly. HARDCOVER 1970 G. P. Putnam & Sons Stated 1st American Edition, 1st Printing with "First American Edition 1979" & no additional printings on copyright page. Exactly as shown in listing scan(s). Nice Collectible 1st American Edition 1st Printing hardcover copy IN DUST JACKET.

"William Pitt, the great reformer, was the youngest and possibly the greatest Prime Minister England ever had. In this compelling biography, Robin Reilly reveals the complex man behind the aloof, rigid public figure. The "virgin minister," as he was called by his political rivals, is found here to be warm and engaging as statesman and friend. This is an excellent first point of call when checking any point, large or small, in Pitt's life. An excellent book that brings together all the usual information on the statesman in a eminently clear, readable style."
