[Clive, Robert, Baron Clive of Plessey, 1725-1774).

White, 4-page Epistle Dedicatory, and 40pp. of main text, engraved bookplate of Robert Lord Clive to verso of front board, contemporary mottled full calf, spine gilt, some light wear to lower joint and outer corners, with small loss to head and foot of spine, folioQTY: (1)NOTE:Provenance: Robert Clive, 1st Baron Clive, KB, FRS (1725 - 1774), also known as Clive of India (bookplate).Wing P3177.A courageous, resourceful but ruthless military commander, Major-General Robert Clive became the first British Governor of the Bengal Presidency, using his political and military influence to amass a personal fortune. Clive's uncertain reputation was neatly encapsulated in Thomas Macaulay's famous description of him: “Clive, like most men who are born with strong passions and tried by strong temptations, committed great faults, but every person who takes a fair and enlightened view of his whole career must admit that our island, so fertile in heroes and statesmen, has scarcely ever produced a man more truly great either in arms or in council.”Given Clive of India's inclination for political machination, his ownership of this first-hand account by the Catholic perjuror Miles Prance, who became embroiled in the infamous but fictitious Popish Plot conspiracy to assassinate King Charles II, is unsurprising. On the news of the death of Sir Edmund Berry Godfrey in 1678, Miles Prance became an object of suspicion. Imprisoned in Newgate, Prance confessed and recanted several times, resulting in the execution of Henry Berry, Robert Green, and Lawrence Hill for the murder. It is likely the three men executed were innocent.
