BLAIR (Hugh): - Lectures on Rhetoric and Belles Lettres.
London: Printed for W. Strahan..., 1783.

The first review of Blair's admired and frequently-reprinted book came in the Monthly Review, in which the reviewer affirmed that Blair had exemplified a "happy and singular union of taste and philosophy [and had] supplied a great defect in the science of criticism...." It also made a "valuable addition to the polite literature" of the late 18th century.
