John Trenchard (1662-1723) was educated at Trinity College, Dublin and became a lawyer, but most of his career was spent writing on the subject of politics. Between 1720 and 1723 he co-wrote, under the pseudonym of Cato, a series of essays entitled Cato's Letters in which he condemns the corruption and lack of morality within British politics, and warns of tyranny within the political system.
