Jacke Of Dover's Quest Of Inquiry: Or His Privy Search For The Veriest Fool In England, 1604 is a book written by William Carew Hazlitt and published in 1866. The book is a satirical work that parodies the social and political climate of England in the early 17th century. The story follows the character Jacke of Dover, a wealthy merchant who sets out on a quest to find the biggest fool in England. Along the way, Jacke encounters a variety of characters, including politicians, clergymen, and members of the aristocracy, all of whom he deems to be foolish in their own way. Hazlitt's writing is witty and clever, and his commentary on the state of English society is sharp and incisive. Overall, Jacke Of Dover's Quest Of Inquiry is a humorous and insightful work of satire that offers a unique perspective on the history and culture of England in the early modern period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
