"This work consists of a long satirical poem which Disraeli contributed to "The Star Chamber" which was a short-lived periodical that appeared in 1826. "The Dunciad of To-day" and "The Modern Aesop" which Disraeli also contributed to "The Star Chamber" have never been reprinted and the present volume constitutes something of a literary find and we feel sure that, if you are able to find room to notice it in your columns, it will be of interest to your readers." - Letter laid in from publishers Ingpen & Grant to The Editor, The American Mercury, forwarding this copy. Early literary works by the future Prime Minister of England, with interesting provenance.; 1928 pages.
