Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

In 1643, a clandestine Royalist conspiracy was uncovered within London, implicating several prominent figures including Edmund Waller, a celebrated poet and MP, and Thomas Tompkins, a government official. The plot aimed to raise armed support for King Charles I from within the city, undermining Parliament's control at a critical juncture in the Civil War. Once exposed, the conspirators were brought before a Council of War, where the proceedings revealed a network of sympathisers and secret communications. Waller, in a bid to save himself, gave a detailed confession that led to the arrest of others, including Challoner and Tompkins, the latter of whom was executed. The affair shocked Parliament and served as a cautionary tale of divided loyalties within its own ranks. 14 pages, printed in double columns. Printed between 1809 and 1826, these historic documents are vivid extracts from Cobbett's State Trials; pages from the courtroom record that preserve the voices, arguments, and verdicts which helped shape the course of British justice and still echo through its constitutional legacy. Over two centuries old, each leaf is a tangible fragment of legal history, compelling, original, and rarely encountered outside institutional collections. These are not reprints or replicas, but authentic 19th-century printings that are rich in drama, and steeped in history. This particular trial report has been removed from a volume of Cobbett's State Trials and is now preserved in a modern card cover for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery. Size: 15 x 25 cms. Category: State Trials; State Trials::Octavo; Cosmo Books : 29 years on ABE, 47 years taking care of customers. A bookseller you can rely on. Softcover (Booklet - Unbound Pages).…
