Name: Lord Downshire And The United IrishmenSubtitle: A Selection From The Downshire Papers, 1793-1799Author:Editor: Clifford, BrendanCategory: United Irish CollectionPublisher: Athol BooksPublished: 1998ISBN: 0 85034 082 9Contents: "Lord Downshire And The United Irishmen" is a selection from the Downshire Papers for the years 1793 to 1799, the years that saw the rise and suppression of the United Irish movement, and the first steps in the move to merge the Parliament of the Irish Protestant Ascendancy into the British Parliament. The Hill/Downshire family at Hillsborough was the chief aristocratic family in County Down, and was one of the pillars of the British state constructed after the Glorious Revolution of 1688. The Papers reproduced here consist chiefly of letters sent to Lord Downshire, about the growth of the United Irish movement in the County and the measures taken against it. The core of this book consists of 86 of those letters, which are now published for the first time. To this is added a review of the militaristic, slave-owning, aristocratic state created by the Glorious Revolution in the name of Liberty, which led in Ireland to all that is conveyed by the words Seventeen Ninety-Eight. With an historical review of the British Constitution by Brendan Clifford. 120 pp. Index to letters.Extracts: No extra online material at this time.Errata: No errata available at this time.Price: £10.00Postage Option: We are able to deliver free to shipping addresses within the United Kingdom and Ireland.

Name: Memoirs Of My Jewish Great Grandfather (Karl Holzer)Subtitle:Author: Holzer, KarlEditor: Abukhalil, M.A.Category: German-Irish CollectionPublisher: Belfast Historical & Educational SocietyPublished: 2002ISBN: 1 872078 07 8Contents: Karl Holzer—a successful Jewish businessman in Vienna—wrote down his Memoirs for his children and grandchildren in the 1920s. His daughter, fleeing Nazism in the late 1930s, brought them to London. A copy of them was sent to her niece in Israel—and eventually came into the hands of his great-grand-daughter—M. A. AbuKhalil—back in London. Nothing too unusual there. What is curious is that his great-grand-daughter is Arabic, as well as Jewish—excluded from Palestine by a military campaign in which her Jewish uncle played a leading part.

Name: Memoirs Of William SampsonSubtitle:Author: Sampson, WilliamEditor: Robinson, KennethCategory: Irish CollectionPublisher: Athol BooksPublished: 2007ISBN: 978 085034 117 1Contents: William Sampson was one of the United Irishmen who was singled out for ill-treatment by the authorities, with the malevolence continuing even after he was sent into exile. What earned him the particular hatred of the ruling junta was that, unlike most of the other Northern United Irishmen, he was of themselves: from an Ascendancy family, an Attorney at Law, Church of Ireland, well-to-do, and, as he says, "the road to advancement open". But, instead of climbing the ladder to legal eminence, he used his brilliant talents to undermine the oppressive regime: writing and petitioning for constitutional government, and defending United Irishmen in court. He was driven to such "sedition" by the manner in which Ireland was being ruled by a "terrorist Parliament".
