Among his professedly historical writings the Memorial on the Change of Ministry, 1710, and the History of the Last Your Years of Queen Anne, 1758, now regarded as his by the best authorities, are here specially noticeable.

Ashton's Social Life in the Reign of Queen Anne (new edition, 1883) merits recommendation.]
