The Political Works of Andrew Fletcher is a collection of writings by the Scottish politician and writer Andrew Fletcher, first published in 1732. The book includes a variety of political essays and speeches, covering topics such as the role of government, the dangers of centralized power, and the importance of individual liberty and property rights. Fletcher was a staunch advocate for Scottish independence and a critic of the English monarchy, and many of his works reflect these views. The book also includes several pieces on the history of Scotland and its relationship with England, as well as a selection of letters and other documents. Overall, The Political Works of Andrew Fletcher provides a fascinating glimpse into the political and intellectual debates of early 18th-century Scotland, and remains an important text for scholars of Scottish history and political thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
