Reading edition

17 How. St. Tr. 675 (1735). The fullest account of Zenger and the trial is given by Livingston Rutherford, John Peter Zenger, New York, 1904. Rutherford’s bibliography lists thirteen editions of the account of the trial before 1791. The Harvard Law School Library contains four of these (London, 1738; London, 1752; London, 1765; New York, 1770), and also an undated copy without specified place, differing from any listed by Rutherford. See also the life of Zenger’s counsel, Andrew Hamilton, by William Henry Loyd, in 1 Great American Lawyers 1.
