Excerpt from The Secret History of the Rye-House Plot: And of Monmouth's Rebellion

The public, therefore, will think itself obliged to those, who have, now for the first time, brought so valuable a memoir to light; as it explains, at full length, all the most secret particulars of what is commonly called the Rye-House Plot; and of the preparatory steps abroad to Monmouth's Rebellion, which happened a few years after.
This account of both those most remarkable transactions was written by the famous Ford Lord Grey, who had been a principal actor in both, and while he was still a prisoner in the Tower for the part he acted in the latter.
