The North Briton is a collection of political essays written by John Wilkes, originally published in 1762 and 1763. The book includes all 46 issues of the newspaper, along with several useful and explanatory notes. The essays were highly critical of the British government and its policies, particularly those of King George III and his ministers. The North Briton was a significant publication in the history of British journalism, as it helped to establish the idea of a free press and the right to criticize the government. Wilkes himself was a controversial figure, known for his radical views and his involvement in various political scandals. Overall, The North Briton is an important historical document that sheds light on the political climate of 18th-century Britain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
