Step back into the dramatic political landscape of 18th-century Britain with this incredibly rare historical pamphlet. This fascinating piece, comprising 8 pages, offers a unique window into the intense power struggles during King George III's illness in November 1788. Bound together with no front or back covers, its raw, unadorned presentation speaks to its historical authenticity and urgency.

This dialogue, overheard last week between a Yorkshire squire and a farmer, brilliantly puts the agitating question between the Prince of Wales and Mr. Pitt "in so striking a point of view, that it would be wrong to withhold it from the public." It provides an invaluable, contemporary perspective on the complex relationship between William Pitt and the Prince of Wales during this pivotal period of regency crisis.

Perfect for historians, collectors of rare political ephemera, or anyone fascinated by British royal and parliamentary history, this pamphlet is more than just a document; it's a piece of living history. Imagine holding a direct commentary from a time when the future of the monarchy hung in the balance. It makes an exceptional gift for a history buff, a unique addition to a dark academia collection, or a thought-provoking display item for a grandmillennial aesthetic.
