I've got a 1714

First edition written by Sir John Fortescue, Lord Chief Justice under Henry VI entitled The Difference Between an Absolute and Limited Monarchy. Perfectly legible, and believed to be the first ever book on the English Constitution.....Hardly a thrill a minute, and written in Olde English (the 's' are all 'f')
