The 'Late General Election' in the title is that which took place in June and July 1790, the prefatory advertisement explaining the scope of the volume being dated November of that year. It contains the full results of the general election for the Houses of Commons of Great Britain and Ireland, a full list of peers and the roll of freeholders of Scottish counties and how they voted, the concepts of a secret ballot and universal suffrage being as of yet some way off. A scarce publication, with ESTC listing copies in no more than a dozen locations.
