A contemporary collection of 8 complete and 10 incomplete publications on the Popish Plot and other English trials at the end of the 17th and the beginning of the 18th century. Bound in a contemporary full leather binding. Binding with some traces of wear but the whole in relatively good order. We only list the complete items in the collection. [1] An impatial state of the case of the Earl of Danby. London 1679. Complete. ESTC R205902. [2] The information of Stephen Dugdale, Gent. delivered at the Bar of the House of Commons.London, 1680 .

ESTC R11047 [8] The last speech & Behaviour of William late Lord Russel.London, J.C. and Thomas Fox, 1683. Complete. ESTC R9946. Most of the publications are in good order allthough some leaves are dustsoiled or inkstained. Of the incomplete trials which form part of this collection we only mention the important '' The Tryal of Doctor Henry Sacheverell, before the house of Peers.'' London, J. Tonson, 1710. ESTC N474309. Our copy lacks the title and the last pages 329-335. We think it a pity to split up this collection formed immediately upon publication of these trials. The book shows no provenance marking except for a name ''P. Parston'', perhaps not contemporary, written in the corner of the first fly leaf.
