‎A highly interesting sammelband with six works all dealing with the Treaty of Seville, formally ending the 1727–1729 Anglo-Spanish War. This treaty was a significant diplomatic agreement between Great Britain, France, and Spain that aimed to resolve ongoing conflicts and tensions among these powers, particularly concerning territorial disputes and trade relations in Europe and the Americas. The treaty was signed on November 9, 1729.""In 1727 Spain, with Habsburg support, began a siege of Gibraltar, held by the British since 1704. It was not pressed with much vigour and an armistice was agreed in 1728. By the treaty of Seville in 1729 Spain restored Britain's commercial concessions while Britain agreed to support Spanish claims in Italy."" (Oxford Reference). The Free Briton Extraordinary ""is a reply to William Pulteney’s anonymous “A Short View of the State of Affairs,” our no. 80700, vol. 19. The latter pamphlet has been confused frequently with another with a similar title, also printed in this controversy, by “Caleb D’Anvers of Gray’s-Inn, Esq.” and which has the half title, “The Craftsman’s Observations on the Peace, &c. and the Answer.” Nicholas Ambhurst, as editor of the political journal, “The Craftsman,” used the pseudonym “Caleb D’Anvers.” This journal published anonymous pieces of Bolingbroke and others.” (Sabin 101167) Sabin: 101167"80700 101147‎
