A Letter from a Gentleman in Virginia, to the Merchants of Great Britain, Trading to that Colony

The title page of A Letter from a Gentleman in Virginia, to the Merchants of Great Britain, Trading to that Colony fails to note that the author of the text was Landon Carter, probably the most prolific published author of his generation in Virginia. In this political pamphlet published in London in 1754, Carter defends the power of the House of Burgesses.
