Excerpt from Collections Relative to Claims at the Coronations of Several of the Kings of England, Beginning With King Richard II The interest felt at the present moment with respect to every thing connected with the approaching Coronation, will sufficiently account for this publication. It embraces, it is true, only one of the many subjects so ably treated of by Mr. Arthur Taylor, in his "Glory of Regality," and Mr. Thomson, in his "Account of the Coronation of George III. &c." It was not, however, consistent with their plan, to enter so diffusely into the Claims at the different Coronations, as to satisfy those who feel personally interested.
