An account of the publick affairs in Ireland since the discovery of the late plot - London: 1679. 4to. pp. [vi], 20. The 1st of two Wing A 376. Very rare.
The period covered is October 14, 1678 to April 7, 1679. Offers reprints of a series of anti-catholic proclamations issued by the duke of Ormond in the wake of the “Popish Plot”. This followed his return “from a progress made by him into Munster, to view the forts and places fit for fortification; and in particular from seeing the new fort begun by his order the March preceding, for the defence of the harbour of Kinsale.” £5,000 had already been spent on this project. Sweeney 76 quoting the 1st Dublin edition. A very good copy in modern half calf.
