The Passion of American Collectors: Property of Barbara and Ira Lipman

[Lee, Charles]
Strictures on a Pamphlet, entitled, a "Friendly Address to All Reasonable Americans, on the Subject of our Political Confusions." Addressed to the People of America. [New York: James Rivington,] 1775

8vo (183 x 113 mm). 7 leaves only, paginated [13–16], 17–25, [1]. Some spotting, title cut close at top margin. Modern board. Half blue morocco folding-case.

The second half only of Rivington's edition of Henry Barry's The General, Attacked by a Subaltern: or The Strictures on the Friendly Address Examined, and a Refutation of its Principles Attempted, which was written in reply to Lee's work. It is possible, but unlikely, that this part of the pamphlet was issued separately.
