MEMOIRS OF IRELAND FROM THE RESTORATION, TO THE PRESENT TIMES ... BY THE AUTHOR OF THE SECRET HISTORY OF EUROPE

by [ Oldmixon, John]

  • Hardcover
London: Printed for J. Roberts, 1716. [2],vi,264pp. Octavo. Modern calf and marbled boards. Tanned, with early ownership signature at top margin of title, marginal chipping to final leaf (last leaf of index). Generally a good copy, handsomely bound. First edition. Although occasionally attributed erroneously to Thomas Salmon, this work's attribution to Oldmixon, the extremely prolific Whig poet and political writer, is now accepted. Oldmixon's political bias earned him a place in Pope's DUNCIAD, and Johnson referred to him in THE IDLER as one of the "lowest of human beings -- a scribbler for a party." Not in Bradshaw, and though not a fine copy, somewhat uncommon in the market. ESTC NI0546. NCBEL II:1709.

James MacGeoghegan was an Irish Roman Catholic priest and historian. His 'History of Ireland' was written in French and published at Parish in 1758.

This 1868 edition includes numerous full-page illustrations throughout including a color frontispiece! It is notable, not only for its impressive illustrations, but for the contents including
·
Treaty of Limerick
·
William II

Battle of Landen
·
