Paperback. Zustand: New. Set both in England and in America, Emma Corbett is the moving story of a family torn apart by the American revolutionary war. Edward Corbett and Henry Hammond are brought up together and go on to marry each other's sisters, but fight on opposite sides in the war. Emma Corbett, Edward's sister, follows Henry to Pennsylvania. Disguised as a man, she fights for the British before finding Henry and saving his life, but the war and its aftermath have tragic consequences for all four young people.

A series of personal letters between Pratt (writing as Courtney Melmoth) and Benjamin Franklin, for whom he worked in France, are also included.…

Contemporary gilt-ruled sprinkled calf. Without lettering-pieces. Rubbed, joints split, spines dulled. Short tear and slight loss to leading edge of leaf E10 of Vol. I. Armorial bookplates of George Jacob Bosanquet to both FEPs, ticket of bookseller T. Hookham of New Bond Street to FEP of Vol. I. English novelist, actor and poet Samuel Jackson Pratt's (1749-1814) most commercially successful prose work, Emma Corbett - an epistolary British society novel set around Philadelphia in the Royal Winter of 1777, is widely considered the first English novel of the American Revolution. First published in 1780 with the subtitle 'or, the miseries of civil war. Founded on some recent circumstances which happened in America', by 1789 nine English editions and six further American editions were issued; it was quickly translated into French and German, with editions in both languages appearing by 1783. This copy bears the bookplate of George Jacob Bosanquet (1791-1866), English diplomat, son of East India Company director Jacob Bosanquet. Of this ninth English edition ESTC locates copies at just six locations worldwide (Alberta, Arizona, BL, Illinois, NYPL and Virginia).
