Cato’s Letters
This collection was written by John Trenchard and Thomas Gordon between October 1720 and July 1723, and were originally published in the London Journal under the pseudonym of “Cato”. The pseudonym was based on that of Cato the Minor who lived between 95-45 BC. Cato was a Roman statesman and politician known for his long running conflict with Julius Caesar. He has long been remembered for his moral integrity, immunity to bribes, and his vocal opposition to the rampant corruption of the day.
