The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Delve into what it was like to live during the eighteenth century by reading the first-hand accounts of everyday people, including city dwellers and farmers, businessmen and bankers, artisans and merchants, artists and their patrons, politicians and their constituents. Original texts make the American, French, and Industrial revolutions vividly contemporary.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title. This data is provided as an additional tool in helping to insure edition identification:++++Library of CongressW026911Dated on p. 20: London, St. James’ Place, 28th May 1798. Caption title on p.3: A letter, &c. There is a great deal of uncertainty about the place of publication of this item. It is listed by Evans, but without a place of publication. DLC and other libraries assign it to London. It is related by its author, caption title, and contents to ’An account of the late revolution in Geneva’, with imprint: 'Philadelphia: published by Francis C. King, no.42, Market-Street, 1798'. There are only four recorded works with that imprint, all dated 1798, three of them by D’Ivernois, and the fourth one also related to Swiss affairs. The author, in the ’Account’ expresses the wish that his work might circulate in France. All this might point to a possible fictitious imprint. Typographical evidence, however, is not inconsistent with American printing of the period. Further evidence is needed.[Philadelphia? : s.n, 1798?]. 20p. ; 8°
