New York: Denniston and Cheetham, 1802. 72pp, disbound, loosening, light tanning. Early ownership signature in top margin of title page. Good+. Cheetham, notorious pamphleteer and journalist, edited the Democratic-Republicans' newspaper in New York, whose bitterly partisan politics involved Burr [then Jefferson's Vice President], Clinton, and Hamilton factions. Cheetham regularly attacked Burr, and does so here, saying that "there is about his actions a cunning, a sort of legerdemain, which, while it defies conclusive proof, eludes the most acute research." This is the second of three 1802 printings. SECOND EDITION. Howes C337. Tompkins 21. Gaines 02-23. McCoy C294.

Second edition, revised and corrected. "[Cheetham] was the Editor of the AMERICAN CITIZEN, the organ of the Republican party in New York; he was fond of invective and merciless in his attacks upon Burr" - Tompkins. Cheetham was a Clintonian Republican and herein attacks Aaron Burr and his followers, with whom the Clintonians were struggling for state and national prominence. "The secretive, cunning, and untrustworthy Burr, [Cheetham] argued, suppressed THE HISTORY OF THE ADMINISTRATION OF JOHN ADAMS both because he was unfriendly to Jefferson and the current administration and because his own inordinate ambitions required that he not antagonize Federalists whose support he might need in the future" - Sheidley.
