Curtius Rescued from The Gulph; or, The Retort Courteous to the Rev. Dr. Parr, in answer to his learned pamphlet, intitled, "A Sequel," &c.

(Cumberland, Richard, 1732-1811) / London: Printed for Hookham and Carpenter 1792
43 pp. beginning with half title; self wrappers, initials of a previous owner, last leaf creased at corner, light extraction roughness at spine, still overall very good in self wrappers; the British playwright takes up the cause of Rev. Charles Curtis against Dr. Samuel Parr in order to mock Parr's overblown response to letter that seems to have been sent him as a joke by one of his own students; scarce as a first.
