Volume 1 contains Burke's brilliant defense of the American colonists' complaints of British policy, including "Thoughts on the Cause of the Present Discontents" (1770), "Speech on American Taxation" (1774), and "Speech on Conciliation" (1775). Volume 2 consists of Burke's renowned Reflections on the Revolution in France. Volume 3 presents Burke's Four Letters on the Proposals for Peace with the Regicide Directory of France -- generally styled Letters on a Regicide Peace (1795-1796). The Letters, Payne believed, deserve to "rank even before Burke's] Reflections, and to be called the writer's masterpiece." Faithfully reproduced in each volume are E. J. Payne's notes and introductory essays. Francis Canavan, one of the great Burke scholars of the twentieth century, has added forewords and a biographical note on Payne. In the companion volume, Canavan has collected seven of Burke's major contributions to English political thinking on representation in Parliament, on economics, on the political oppression of the peoples of India and Ireland, and on the enslavement of African blacks. The volume concludes with a select bibliography on Edmund Burke. 410 0$aSelect Works of Edmund Burke 607 $aGreat Britain$xPolitics and government$y18th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xColonies$zAmerica 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yRevolution, 1789-1799 607 $aGreat Britain$xRelations$zFrance 676 $a320.9033 700 $aBurke$b Edmund$f1729-1797.$038256 701 $aCanavan$b Francis$f1917-2009.$01851705 701 $aPayne$b Edward John$f1844-1904.$01851706 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969733403321 996 $aLetters on a regicide peace$94467199 997 $aUNINA
