A remarkable 1769 tripartite imprint surfaced in 1994 auction, for sale by heirs of David Hartley, sometime Member of Parliament and the official British signatory of the 1783 Treaty of Paris that formally ended the American Revolution. Entitled The Petition to His Majesty, The Memorial to the House of Lords, and The Remonstrance to the House of Commons (PMR), it came from the Virginia colonial legislature—the House of Burgesses whose membership included George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.
Examining the PMR history probes difficult communications that led up to the American War of Independence. Many of its points were reiterated in the July 4, 1776 Declaration of Independence. Not co-incidentally, Thomas Jefferson and other Virginia signers of the Declaration had participated in drawing up this 1768 protest.
The Borderline Anti-Memory PastBook asks questions a diary does not ask and raises the questions to dialectics and answers them in a way a memory work does not answer questions.
A work in American history and existentialism Which is an Invitation to connect and create the dots in your life to other revolutions like the Cuban Revolution.
