No Binding. Condition: Good. First Edition. No illustrations. Small volume (16.5 x 10cm). NOTE: A GOOD COPY with NO COVER - BOOK BLOCK ONLY. Lacks both front & rear boards (merely unlettered leather spine with 4 raised bands remaining), ffep & first two blanks detached (but all present), unobtrusive early ink notation to title p…age (dated Nov. 23 1786 [?]), mild foxing throughout, otherwise a clean complete copy. Internally VG. Pagination complete with all pages present, though some page numbers incorrectly printed (30, 31, 32, 23 - - - 38, 49, 50, 51, etc.). Title page, followed by 19-176pp. RARE VOLUME. Quoting Canadian dealer Black's Fine Books (in part): "The British Library in their catalogued entry notes the presence of two variants of the imprint ('The first line of the imprint has 'And Sold'. Another edition has 'And to be Sold' ') [note: their copy reads the latter, our copy reads the former]. See ESTC Citation Nos. R224964 (006131506) & R14958 (006080775). See also Wing, Citation No. D506. Scarce in commerce. A remarkable and crucial historical account of the raging debates within the English parliament surrounding the events leading up to the Glorious Revolution of 1688, also known as the Bloodless Revolution, which witnessed the deposition of James II (also, James VII of Scotland) from the English Throne in favour of his daughter Mary II and her husband, William III of Orange. The present volume deals chiefly with Parliament's resolution relating to whether James had forfeited, or abdicated the throne by virtue of his having discarded the 'Great Seal of the Realm' into the River Thames prior to fleeing for France, his subsequent capture at Kent, and later exile under the protection of Louis XIV of France. Ultimately, Parliament declared that: 'King James II having endeavored to subvert the constitution of the kingdom, by breaking the original contract between king and people, and, by the advice of Jesuits and other wicked persons, having violated the fundamental laws, and having withdrawn himself out of this kingdom, has abdicated the government, and that the throne is thereby vacant'.".

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. FIRST EDITION. Octavo. COLLATION: A-B4 C-F8 G-Q4, COMPLETE. [2], 19-176 pp. Attractive half calf antique, marbled boards, red morocco label gilt, compartments gilt with small tools. FIRST EDITION of this important collection of Parliamentary debates, providing original and valuable documentation…of the constitutional crisis that ensued during the Glorious Revolution of 1688. James II of England (a.k.a. James VII of Scotland), while fleeing to France, dropped the Great Seal of the Realm into the Thames. In Parliament the question was discussed whether he had forfeited the throne or had abdicated. The present volume offers detailed arguments for the both, but ultimately the latter designation was agreed upon, and in a full assembly of the Lords and Commons, it was resolved in spite of James's protest "that King James II having endeavored to subvert the constitution of the kingdom, by breaking the original contract between king and people, and, by the advice of Jesuits and other wicked persons, having violated the fundamental laws, and having withdrawn himself out of this kingdom, has abdicated the government, and that the throne is thereby vacant." The Scottish parliament pronounced a decree of forfeiture and deposition. In our copy the imprint reads "and to be sold" (in another issue the imprint reads "and sold"). References: Wing (2nd ed.) E1288A. ESTC R14958. Provenance: the Sunderland copy (sale of the Bibliotheca Sunderlandiana, Puttick & Simpson, 1882, Fourth Portion, lot 9338) -- subsequently in the Theological Institute of Connecticut (now known as the Hartford Seminary) with blindstamps. NB: in 1976 a collection of more than 200,000 books from the Hartford Seminary Library were sold to Emory University, including this one --> deaccessioned from Pitts Theology Library.

A remarkable and crucial historical account of the raging debates within the English parliament surrounding the events leading up to the Glorious Revolution of 1688, also known as the Bloodless Revolution [An Réabhlóid Ghlórmhar (Irish): Rèabhlaid Ghlòrmhor (Scottish Gaelic); Chwyldro Gogoneddus (Welsh); Glorieuze Overtocht (Dutch)], which witnessed the deposition of James II (also, James VII of Scotland) from the English Throne in favour of his daughter Mary II and her husband, "stadtholder and de facto ruler of the Dutch Republic", William III of Orange. The Revolution would see the passage of the landmark Bill of Rights of 1689, ensured the exclusion of Catholics from the English throne, severely curtailed the monarch's power, and witnessed the effective establishment of a constitutional monarchy, thereby, ensuring the supremacy of Parliament. It further led to the Act of Toleration of 1689, granting toleration to "Nonconformist Protestants" (but excluding Catholics whose emancipation would be delayed for a further 140 years). The present volume deals chiefly with Parliament's resolution relating to whether James had forfeited, or, abdicated the throne by virtue of his having discarded the "Great Seal of the Realm" into the River Thames prior to fleeing for France, his subsequent capture at Kent, and later exile under the protection of Louis XIV of France. Ultimately, Parliament declared that: "King James II having endeavored to subvert the constitution of the kingdom, by breaking the original contract between king and people, and, by the advice of Jesuits and other wicked persons, having violated the fundamental laws, and having withdrawn himself out of this kingdom, has abdicated the government, and that the throne is thereby vacant.".

12mo, 15.5cm, third edition, [ii],92,[2](contents table],p., in contemporary slightly speckled full calf, real raised bands, no title stamping, top and bottom split at the hinge, text sound, the front board is cupped on the outer edges, publisher guards at the front and final leaves as issued, the half title and the recto, ident…ifies this as "A Supplement To the Crisis, Written by Mr. Steele. "; verso being an ad for this book, the first and final leaves are slightly dust worn, the is over wise bright, clear and sound, the text is slightly wrinkled from excess hunidity but not damp stained, good to very good, rare (Ho2.1). - No auction records or listings located. ~ ESTC T170470, citing 3 locations only in the U.K. (Victoria & Albert Mus., Cambridge, and Univ. of Manchester); the NUC records three editions under "Great Britain. Parliament, 1689". The 5 copies of this edition located in the NUC (L.of C., Harvard, Univ. of Ill., NYP and Univ. of Chicago) do not have the initial leaf, nor do the 3 copies in the ESTC. ~ The book relates to the "Glorious Revolution" of 1688 and the coming to England of William of Orange and Mary at the invitation of certain nobles unhappy with the accession to the throne of James II. It includes a lengthy exchange of opinions regarding the politics and government of England, and the questions that surrounded the various theories of succession. Steele carried on a celebrated political controversy with Jonathan Swift, the chief Tory spokesman, in 1713, during the course of which he wrote his pamphlet "The Crisis". He presumably had this work, which was first published in 1695 and again in 1710, republished in 1714 in order to support his own opinions.
