Brief Summary:
Autograph letter signed from Voltaire to Richard Rolt, written from Berlin and dated 3 August [1751].
Detailed Summary:
Voltaire writes that he received Rolt’s letter yesterday, despite it being dated December, detailing two mistakes which meant that the book that accompanied the letter had not reached Voltaire for some time. He adds that he had read Rolt’s ‘curious history’ with great pleasure, noting that he is a good patriot and a faithful historian. He ends by saying that he hopes Rolt has received due praise in England for the work.
