1 Stater, Victor High Life Low Morals - The Duel that shook Stuart Society.
John Murray 1999 0719557194 / 9780719557194 First Edition Hardback with dust wrapper Fine Fine Illus. in b/w. 
Early on the morning of November 15, 1712, 2 prominent members of the aristocracy, Lord Mohun and the Duke of Hamilton, met in Hyde Park to fight a duel. In a flurry of brutal swordplay that lasted 2 minutes, both fell mortally wounded. For months afterwards Stuart society was in uproar, for the duel occurred at a moment of grave political crisis. Whigs and Tories, increasingly desperate over the future as Queen Anne neared death, hurled charges of political murder and treasonous plotting at one another. The effects of this fatal encounter were to last for several generations. 8vo 332pp 616531

For all in scorn of the wintry weather,
And heedless quite of the howling storm,
My books and I are alone together.

From "Old Friends" by R. W. Waddy
