The book Correspondence of Edmund Burke: Between the Year 1744, and the Period of His Decease, 1797 is a collection of letters written by the famous British statesman and political philosopher, Edmund Burke. The letters cover a period of over fifty years, from 1744 to Burke's death in 1797, and provide insight into his personal life, political beliefs, and relationships with other prominent figures of his time.The book is edited by Charles William Fitzwilliam, a friend and contemporary of Burke, who also provides an introduction and notes to contextualize the letters. The correspondence includes letters to and from Burke's family, friends, and colleagues, as well as his political opponents and critics.The letters touch on a wide range of topics, including Burke's early career as a lawyer and his later political career as a member of parliament and leading figure in the Whig party. They also provide a glimpse into Burke's personal life, including his relationships with his wife and children, his struggles with health issues, and his love of literature and the arts.Overall, Correspondence of Edmund Burke offers a fascinating look into the life and mind of one of the most influential political thinkers of the 18th century, and is a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of history and politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
