520			_a"An Humble Address and Earnest Appeal" by Josiah Tucker is a political treatise written in the late 18th century. The work addresses the contentious relationship between Great Britain and its American colonies during a period of escalating tensions, proposing that a total separation from the colonies may be more beneficial than maintaining the current ties. Tucker argues for a practical evaluation of the implications of separation versus continued conflict and the need for a clear resolution to the ongoing disputes. The opening of the text sets the stage for Tucker's examination of three proposed schemes for the future of Great Britain and its colonies amidst the prevailing unrest. He outlines the Parliamentary proposal to maintain control, Mr. Burke’s suggestion of granting autonomy to the colonies, and Tucker's own radical idea of a total separation. Amidst his discussions, Tucker establishes a framework for evaluating these plans based on practicality, expense, and their potential to avoid future conflicts. He openly criticizes political figures and interests that may distort the outcomes of this critical debate, emphasizing that decisions should be made by those with the most at stake—the landed interests of Great Britain and Ireland.
