''An Essay On The Constitutional Power Of Great Britain Over The Colonies In America'' is a historical document written by John Dickinson in 1774. The book is a political treatise that examines the relationship between Great Britain and its American colonies. Dickinson argues that the British government has the right to regulate colonial trade and commerce, but that it does not have the authority to tax the colonies without their consent. He also argues that the colonists have the right to self-government and that the British government should respect their rights and freedoms. The book is significant because it helped to shape the debate over the American Revolution and the relationship between Great Britain and its colonies. It is considered one of the most important works of the American Revolution and a key document in the history of American political thought.With The Resolves Of The Committee For The Province Of Pennsylvania, And Their Instructions To The Representatives In Assembly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
