Book Description
Letters to Sir William Windham and Mr. Pope is a memoir by Henry St. John Viscount Bolingbroke. Bolingbroke was an English politician, government representative and political thinker. Excerpt: "The Whigs impeached and attainted me. They went farther—at least, in my way of thinking, that step was more cruel than all the others—by a partial representation of facts, and pieces of facts, put together as it best suited their purpose, and published to the whole world, they did all that in them lay to expose me for a fool, and to brand me for a knave. But then I had deserved this abundantly at their hands, according to the notions of party-justice. The Tories have not indeed impeached nor attainted me; but they have done, and are still doing something very like to that which I took worse of the Whigs than the impeachment and attainder: and this, after I have shown an inviolable attachment to the service, and almost an implicit obedience to the will of the party; when I am actually an outlaw, deprived of my honours, stripped of my fortune, and cut off from my family and my country, for their sakes."

Book Description
Excerpt from A Letter the Right Honourable William Windham, on the Intemperance and Dangerous Tendency of His Public Conduct My purpose in this public address is not to write a libel, or to display my talents for satire. It has a more worthy meamngi It is to warn you and the nation against the effervescence of your passions. The intemperance of public men is tremendously awfulatall times; but, when it plunges millions into all the miseries of war, it rises into inxexpressible horror. 'it is strange that, from real benevolence of intention, the mischiefs which'fable ascribes to fiends should be the re sult yet this apparent paradox has, of late, been too repeatedly and too woefully proved. You, Sir, and that extrordinary man, Mr. Burke, whose kind but erroneous heart, whose splendid but ill employed talent-s, have led you astray, are among the examples.
