Single leaf broadside. Central horizontal fold, creased, chipping to edges, several paper repairs to verso. A rare survival of a patriotic address against the threatened invasion of Britain by Napoleon, written from the perspective of a deceased Shoreditch shopkeeper once honoured by Henry VIII for his military valour as a part of the 'Finsbury Archers'. The jingoistic phantom calls for the nation to 'take up your arms' in defiance of 'these Savages of Europe, these modern Barbarians' who desire to 'cross the channel, which I hope and trust, will prove the Red Sea to them'. COPAC records a single copy (NLS); OCLC adds five further copies (California, DePaul, Harvard, Massachusetts, and McGill). Size: Dimensions 260 x 430 mm. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers AQ17456

Established 2007, Antiquates Ltd is an Antiquarian bookseller with a large, custom built shop in the heart of the Dorset countryside. We sell fine and rare books from our Wareham shop, in catalogues, and via our website (www.antiquates.co.uk). Specialising in early printed books both English and Continental, fine English Literature, and books by, for, and about Women and Children, we nevertheless stock a wide range of works on paper from 1500-present - including modern first editions. Our bias is towards the unusual, the interesting and the important - and always have a good stock of rare books by local authors such as T.E. Lawrence and Thomas Hardy; we are just the place if you're looking for an extra-special gift for a wedding, birthday, anniversary or graduation. (Open Wednesday - Saturday, 10am-4pm)
