The volume is a scrapbook of material copied from various authors. It chronicles the career of Richard Champion (1743-1791) as a merchant, a manufacturer of porcelain, and a political activist. Champion, an English Quaker, created porcelain which compared favorably with that of Josiah Wedgwood. A staunch Whig, Champion emigrated to Camden, South Carolina in 1784 and later served as a delegate to the Constitutional Convention of 1790.
