The Post Office in the eighteenth century was a large and important organisation. Besides transmitting mail, it provided a variety of public, political and secret services in the spheres of revenue, propoganda and intelligence. Dr Ellis describes the structure and work of the office, the career of Anthony Todd, and the system for intercepting mail in this interesting historic book.
