Wherein it is Proved, That the Reasons Alleadged [sic] by Sir Peter Leicester, In his from Book, and also in his said Answer, concerning the Illegitimacy of the said Amicia, are invalid, and of no weight at all. By Sir Thomas Mainwaring of Peover in Cheshire, Baronet. 8vo, 164 103 mms., pp. [ii], 105 [106 balnk], with the autograph of George Shakerley on the top margin of the title-page. 2 volumes, similarly bound in contemporary calf, richly gilt spines, number I and II, with the book label of C. J. Shakerley, Esa. Somerford Park, Congleton, Cheshire, on the front paste-down end-paper of each volume; front free end-paper in first volume detached, arithmetical calculations in pencil on recto of second front free end-paper, both volumes with joints cracked and spines rubbed. "Like his father, Mainwaring loved books and cultivated learning. Between 1673 and 1679 he and his kinsman Sir Peter Leycester exchanged insults and arguments in print over the illegitimacy of their remote common ancestress, Amicia, daughter of Hugh of Cyfeilog, earl of Chester, alleged in Leycester's Historical Antiquities (1673) and denied by Mainwaring. Eventually their arguments ranged over much of the social and political life of the twelfth century, and in so doing represented a milestone in historiography. These antagonistsboth possessed of legal training, antiquarian zeal, and significant personal munimentswere able to urge each other, and occasionally themselves, to interpret twelfth-century material from the viewpoint of a twelfth-century nobleman, and not as a quaint aberration" (ODNB). A salutary example to those who wish to judge manners, values, and mores of Victorian times by today's modish inanities.

London: Printed for S. Lowndes, 1673. (illustratore). London: Printed for S. Lowndes, 1673. Interesting for Its Discussion of Early Common-Law Authorities on Marriage Mainwaring, Sir Thomas [1623-1689]. A Reply to an Answer to the Defence of Amicia, Daughter of Hugh Cyveliok Earl Of Chester. Wherein it is Proved, That the Reasons Alleadged by Sir Peter Leicester, In His Former Book, And Also in His Said Answer, Concerning the Illegitimacy of the Said Amicia, Are Invalid, And of No Weight At All. London: Printed for S. Lowndes, 1673. [ii], 105, [1] pp. Octavo (6-1/2" x 4"). Recent calf, blind rules to boards, gilt title to spine, endpapers renewed. Small scratch to rear board, light foxing to endleaves, upper corner of rear endleaf lacking. Title page printed in red and black. Light toning to interior, light foxing in a few places, initials "R.D." in early hand to head of title page, small early correction to p. 18. An attractive copy. $450. * Only edition. Amicia, the author's grandmother, was the wife of Ralph Mainwaring. Leicester, another descendant of Amicia, claimed that she was a bastard in his Historical Antiquities (1673), and a long, vicious pamphlet war ensued. (The issue was eventually decided in Mainwaring's favor.) This tract, like the others, is of legal interest for its extensive historiographical discussion of the early common law authorities on marriage. Both authors had been students at Gray's Inn.

First edition. [2], 105pp, [1. Title in red and black. Contemporary blind-ruled calf. Heavily rubbed, without lettering-piece. Recent book-labels of John Evelyn and Steven St. Clair Smallwood to FEP, Bookplate of Dr. & Mrs. H. R. Knohl to recto of FFEP, early inked ownership inscription of 'Edw. Lutwych' to head of title page. Presentation copy, inked inscription to verso of front blank fly-leaf: 'Ex dono Authoris'. A presentation copy of the sole edition of antiquary and politician Sir Thomas Mainwaring's (1623-1689) primary contribution to the lengthy pamphlet war waged with Sir Peter Leycester regarding the illegitimacy of their distant common ancestor, Amicia, daughter of Hugh of Cyfeilog, earl of Chester. Begun in 1673 with allegations levelled by Leycester in his Historical Antiquities, later denied by Mainwaring, the debate raged until 1679 - their historiographic arguments eventually encompassing much of the social and political life of the twelfth century. The recipient of this copy was presumably Sir Edward Lutwyche (1634-1709), judge and politician. That said, aside from Mainwaring and Lutwyche living in neighbouring counties, we have been unable to determine a connection. John Evelyn's copy, presumably acquired after the presentation to Lutwyche, with the twentieth century booklabel marking this as such to FEP, lot number 953 in the second part of the Christies sale of the Evelyn Library, March 1978.
