A Revolutionary-era Connecticut almanac with a white-line woodcut portrait of Dr. Jonathan Shipley entitled "The Patriotic Bishop." Twelve pages in this almanac reprint Shipley's famous speech criticizing Britain's uncompromising colonial measures which was "intended to have been spoken on the bill for altering the charter of the province of the Massachusetts Bay." First delivered in 1774, the speech was printed in numerous editions both in London and the colonies in that same year. In addition to the speech, this almanac includes the calendar year (with each month accompanied by a short poem), predictions for the year's eclipses (illustrated with a lunar eclipse), distances from New London to the principal towns on the continent, and a schedule of courts in New England.
