Excerpt from The History of Junius and His Works, and a Review of the Controversy Respecting the Identity of Junius: With an Appendix, Containing Portraits and Sketches by Junius

The inquiries respecting the Identity of the Author of the Letters of Junius having terminated without the 'expectations of discovery so repeatedly held out to the Public being realized, -sir Philip Francis having died and made no sign, - and the three seals which secure the mysterious Box at Stowe still remaining unbroken, - the proper period seems to have arrived for reviewing the whole controversy, and treating the subject historically. This has been attempted in the present work; which will be found to contain all the information that could be collected.
