- This 630-page book provides an original argument generated by two years of full-time research and eight years of consultation and writing. This entailed locating, transcribing, editing, and analysing 281 unpublished documents, held in 33 repositories in 4 countries, on both sides of the Atlantic. With its 120,000-word introduction, 4 appendices, 2 maps and 89 illustrations, this volume furnishes new scholarship on 74 correspondents, informing analysis of 234 eighteenth-century letters. The range of correspondents demanded engagement with two centuries of scholarship across disciplines including theology, politics, economic, social, and legal history, and book history.
