Second edition of the first issue of Part I and the first issue of Part II. An early Cobbett work, the first part of A BONE TO GNAW. was written in response to the pamphlet written by James T. Callender. "Callender., a Scottish writer who had escaped from an English prison, aroused Cobbett's fury by this attack on the British Government and, even more decisively than Dr. Priestley, served to launch Cobbett into his important intervention in American politics. Cobbett's pamphlet, its preface dated 10 January 1795, appeared at first anonymously without even the name of the publisher, Thomas Bradford" - Pearl. The present copy is the second issue of Part I, with the publisher's name in evidence. "Cobbett does not spend many pages on Callender. His principal thrust is on American public affairs: the democratic societies, slavery, Thomas Paine, Bache's AURORA and Andrew Brown's PHILADELPHIA GAZETTE, Madison's resolutions on commerce with Britain, the Whiskey Insurrection of 1794, and so forth. It is a vigorous plea for the English point of view" - Gaines. Part II is an attack on a pamphlet issued by the United Irishmen of Dublin and contains a diatribe against those "Frenchified citizens of the United States of America." SABIN 13875, 13876. PEARL 5.
