The Political House that Jack Built [bound with] The Man in the Moon [and] The Political Showman at Home [and] The Right Divine of Kings to Govern Wrong! [and] A Slap at Slop [and] The Queen’s Matrimonial Ladder [and] The Form of Prayer.

A sammelband of seven political pamphlets from the pen of the satirist and champion of the free press, William Hone (1780-1842), with illustrations by George Cruickshank (1792-1878). Published in the wake of the Peterloo Massacre of August 1819, the pamphlets represent some of Hone’s most biting critique of political repression and tightening censorship laws under the Liverpool ministry.
