Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. First Edition. Half-leather over marbled paper boards with a gilt lettered label to spine. In better than very good shape: firm and square, strong joints, sharp corners. Contents clean and tidy. The front blank leaf shows a very neat lengthy note written in contemporary hand. Also an old name neatly showing at the half title. No other pen-marks or inscriptions, just evenly age toned. Not from a library so no such stamps or labels. Size: 214mm x 133mm; collation: pp. [4], 328. Favourably reviewed by William Rose in the Monthly Review and by Tobias Smollett in the Critical Review, MacQueen's Letters seem to have made Hume expunge some of the most offensive passages from later editions of his History. Thus a well bound book in pleasing condition. Bibliographic references: Chuo III 156; Jessop pp. 49-50; ESTC T81959.…

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION. 8vo. [iv], 328. Contemporary dark calf. Red morocco label between gilt rules. Spine divided by five bands. Author's name handwritten on title page in an early hand. Some light soiling to first few leaves. Rubbed and scratched. Scrape to fore edge of front board. Small library stamp to verso of title-page and one other leaf. Bequest bookplate to FPEP: 'Bequeathed to the Free Church College Library, by George Waddell Esq. Of Rashiehill, Late Comptroller of Customs at Grangemouth. Who Died 21st May, 1846, Aged 64'. Older bookplate beneath. Small crack to the head of the spine. Corners bumped, rubbed in places. This was one of the first responses to David Hume's popular History of England. The first volume of the History, published in 1754, covered the period 1601-1649. Daniel MacQueen (d.1777) was an 'exceptionally learned' minister of Edinburgh, who 'took offence at some passages on the protestant Reformation in the first volume. The footnotes demonstrate his command of Greek language and philosophy, while the text itself pursues Hume relentlessly for his alleged infidelity, concluding with a tract on the nature of true piety ' (ODNB). Although he never acknowledged MacQueen s criticism publicly, Hume quietly removed two passages from later editions of the History to which MacQueen had objected. The bookplate suggests that this was one of the first volumes acquired by the Free Church College library when it entered the New College buildings in 1846, the same year in which Thomas Chalmers became principal.…

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. Half-title present, 328 pp; blind stamp to title-page. Recent quarter calf, morocco label. First edition. MacQueen provides one of the earliest responses to Hume's 'History of Great Britain' (later 'The History of England'.) Hume amended two passages after the first edition of the work was published, and MacQueen's criticism may have been responsible for this. Jessop p.49.…
