The Battles of Talavera. A Poem.
London: Printed for John Murray, 1809. Second edition, [ii], 39, [1]pp., recent marbled boards. A heroic poem about the bloody but inconclusive battle at Talavera, southwest of Madrid (July 27-28, 1809), in which a combined British-Spanish force under Sir Arthur Wellesley (later Duke of Wellington) forced the French army of King Joseph Bonaparte, brother of Napoleon, to withdraw from field. The author, John Wilson Croker, was a high-Tory politician and man of letters, one of the founders of the legendary Quarterly Review and for nearly thirty years its primary contributor. Wellington himself singled out this poem for praise. Surprisingly uncommon: we find no copy of the first or this second edition, Copac locates the third and later editions only.

A Short Letter from Quang-Tcheu. Translated by another Hand.
Dublin: Printed by Graisberry & Campbell, for M. N. Mahon, 109, Grafton Stre[et], 1805. First edition, 12mo, 21, [1]pp., binder having been rather heavy-handed in shaving margins (2 letters cropped from final line of imprint), a little foxing on the last 2 leaves, disbound. This is a satire on "Cutchacutchoo" which was a game in much vogue in Dublin society at the time, a kind of "Blind Man's Buff," or "Hunt the Slipper" which was criticised as tending to immorality. It was denounced in an anonymous satire, supposed to be written J. W. Croker, who was attacked in various retaliatory squibs. The text is signed at the end "J.T.", possibly written by J. W. Croker.

A Sketch of the State of Ireland, Past and Present.
London: Printed for James Carpenter, and M. N. Mahon, Dublin. 1808. Second edition, [8], 64, [6, adverts for books published by Carpenter]pp., with the initial blank leaf and the half-title, and, tipped in before title, a 3, [1,] page prospectus for Bryan's Dictionary of Painting, and, tipped in opposite front endpaper, cont. half calf, worn, rubbed and wanting backstrip, uncut. Supporting Catholic Emancipation. Croker's Sketch (1808) went through twenty editions (it was reprinted as late as 1884) and gained him further notice. It advocated catholic emancipation, a system of national education for all sects, and the payment of the catholic clergy by the state to undermine the influence of Rome. He was harshly caricatured in several fictional works : as the contemptible Rigby in Disraeli's Coningsby; as Wenlan in Thackeray's Pendennis, and as Counsellor Con Crawley in Lady Morgan's Florence MacCarthy.
