Volume Three of Henry Fielding's Miscellanies is devoted entirely to one of his major works of fiction, The History of the Life of the late Mr. Jonathan Wild the Great, an ironic political satire on false greatness. Like others in the Wesleyan Fielding series, the present edition, which follows the original version of 1743 rather than Fielding's later revision, includes an historical introduction, an authoritative text and textual introduction, and full explanatory notes.
