An Humble Apology for Christian Orthodoxy

xvi pp 44 The first anonymous edition of Delany's Apology: a disbound pamphlet with '5' in ink on the title page and 'By Patrick Delany, Dean Down in Ireland' written above the imprint. Top corner of half title neatly cut, probably removing a former ownership inscription, otherwise a near fine copy on bright clean paper stock, small woodcut embellishment to the title page and first page of text, a few contemporary annotations. A very nice copy of this work by the Irish clergyman, theologian and friend of Dean Swift.
