The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Western literary
study flows out of eighteenth-century works by Alexander Pope,
Daniel Defoe, Henry Fielding, Frances Burney, Denis Diderot, Johann
Gottfried Herder, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and others.

THE Translation of this venerable Piece of Antiquity is undertook
upon a double Score; being designed as well to entertain the
Curiosity of the Learned, as to supply the Defects of the Ignorant.
If the original Language would have been more acceptable to the
one, it would have been less intelligible to the other. I cannot,
without uttering a Falsity, venture to affirm that so singular and
valuable a Piece will be made Public, at least as yet: And in the
mean Time I shall flatter myself, that this little Essay may
contribute in some sort or other to the diversion, if not
Instruction, of People in every Condition of Life. If this is well
received, the other Parts will make their Appearance at proper
Distances of Time. I publish no more at present, because I would
not be thought to impose too much upon any one's Patience; as for
losing my own Labour, I am under no bad Apprehensions about that;
for the Reader cannot reject with a greater Disdain, than I have
translated with Pleasure, the Contents of this Book.

Independence will find fascinating accounts from the British side
of conflict. ++++The below data was compiled from various
