John Stevenson

An Address to Brian Edwards, Esq; Containing Remarks on His Pamphlet, Entitled, John Stevenson

Publisher Marketing: The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. Delve into what it was like to live during the eighteenth century by reading the first-hand accounts of everyday people, including city dwellers and farmers, businessmen and bankers, artisans and merchants, artists and their patrons, politicians and their constituents. Original texts make the American, French, and Industrial revolutions vividly contemporary.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

[4],92p.; 8 Contributor Bio:  Stevenson, John John is not an author, or a novelist, or even a writer: John is a storyteller. Since the dawn of humankind people have sat together and told tales; tales of what they knew and what they feared, tales of mystery and suspense, of spirits and of what evil lurked in the shadows beyond the campfire. These were tales that became fantasy and myth, a tradition that john carries on to this day. But John wasn't always a storyteller, for most of his life he was a traveller of the world: a husband and father, and bringer in of the weekly wage. As John reached middle age and his children began to have their own families he at last had time and opportunity to create the characters that inhabit the strange worlds inside his mind.
