THE PRESENT STATE OF EUROPE OR THE HISTORICAL & POLITICAL MONTHLY MERCURY, London, March, 1700
* Rare title at the turn of the 18th century
This is a very uncommon periodical, formatted something like a pamphlet but definitely a periodical, with the more extended title reading: "... Giving an Account of all the Publick and Private Occurrences, Civil, Ecclesiastical, and Military, that are most considerable in every Court: The Interest of Princes, their Pretensions, and Intrigues, etc."(see photo).
This issue includes a full title page, and within there are 34 pages of reports from throughout Europe giving the latest news items of the day.
The title page is defective at the bottom thru a paper-making error, not damage, causing loss of part of the bottom line only on the inside cover page (see photo), otherwise this issue is in very nice, clean condition throughout. The issue measures about 6 1/2 by 8 1/4 inches.
