Book excerpt: Excerpt from Political Pamphlets I do not begin very early, partly because examples of the Elizabethan political pamphlet, or what supplied its place, Will be given in another volume of the series exclusively devoted to the pamphlet literature of the reigns of Eliza and our James, partly for a still better reason presently to be explained. On the other hand, though another special volume is devoted to Defoe, the immortal S/zortesz' Way wz'flz Me Dz'ssenters is separated from the rest of his work, and given here. Most of the contents, however, represent authors not otherwise represented in the series, and though very well known indeed by name, less read than quoted. The suitableness of the political pamphlet, both by size and self-containedness, for such a volume as this, needs no justification except that Which it, like everything else, must receive, by being put to the proof of reading.
