Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Annals of Ireland Ecclesiastical, Civil and Military, From the 19th of March, 1535, to the 12th of July, 1691
Such encouragements as these are said to have pushed the work a little too fast forward, so that it came into the world in somewhat of. A looser dress than was at first intended by the compiler of it.* From these different authors, with Harris's enlarged edition of Sir James lvvare's works, - the Histories of Sanderson, Rapin, Warner, Leland, and some later writers - and from the Biographers of the learned and truly patriotic prelates, Arch bishop Usher and Dr. William Bede], Bishop of Kilmore, the collector of these Annals has formed what he hopes will be considered an useful and authentic compendium of the History of Ireland, during a period of all others most awfully instruo 4ive to the succeeding Governors and Legislators of this part of the British empire.
