Notes:

"In mentioning the motive which induced [the author] to project an historical retrospect of ... 1799, it is far from his intention to depreciate the value of the registers which annually appear ... The publication of the second part will be forwarded with all possible dispatch"--Pref. Name of printer from colophon.

Notes locales:

RBD only v.1: lacking t.p.: probably the title described, based on matching running title, information from pref., colophon and text to reference sources (cf. NUC pre-1956, v. 496, p. 331). Apparently also issued in an expanded 3 v. ed. with sub-title: ... from the renewal of war on the continent in 1798, to the peace of Amiens in 1802: with an introductory view of the treaty of Camp-Formio, and proceedngs of the congress at Rastadt ... Cf. NUC; English cat. of books 1801-1836, p. 495; Bibliotheca Britannica, v. 2, column 806i. Presented to the library by Major A.H. Coates.
