Books in the Historical Memoirs of my Own Time 2 Volume Set series

Originally published in 1815, traveller and writer Nathanial William Wraxall's two-volume memoirs were an immediate, though controversial, success: 1,000 copies sold out within five weeks. Accused and found guilty of libel, he published this 'corrected' second edition later that same year. Volume 1 covers the period 1772-81.
