Its appearance both in London and New York drew criticism. Abigail Adams is noted as having said that Chesterfield's "Letters" encouraged "immoral, pernicious and Libertine principals in the mind of a youth." The letters had been written to Chesterfield's natural son and their worldliness and comments on sexual relations and women as well as some question regarding his relations with Samuel Johnson and other factors attracted disapproval. The Irish presbyterian minister, William Crawford's work "Remarks on the late Earl of Chesterfield's Letters to his Son," 1776 and that of the English author and vicar, Thomas Hunter "Reflections, Critical and Moral on the Letters of the Late Earl of Chesterfield," 1776 were among the most noteworthy. Many of the later editions were abridged due to the bulk of the work as well as the questionable nature of some of its contents and several selections from the letters were published. In the eighteenth century there were only two editions of the full work published in America, this and a 1779 second American edition. Also published in America in the eignteenth century were selections from the "Letters" published as "Lord Chesterfield's Advice to his Son," "Principles of Politeness,"and "Select Letters." In 1827, an edition of Chesterfield, expunged, expurgated and revised was published for the American market and morality, it was entitled "The American Chesterfield". Provenance: James Strohm Copley (bookplate to chemise) Contemporary full mottled calf, with red leather spine label. Booklabel of Joseph Holmes. Some staining, but a very attractive copy. In half brown morocco slipcase and chemise. Signed on ffep "Joseph Holmes/ Book Bot./ Philadelphia/ May 26th 1776 10p/ Earl of Chesterfields Life" with notes at back.
