Beschreibung

Containing the Descent, Marriage, Issue, Titles, Posts, and Seats, of all the Nobility of Ireland. With their Arms, Crests, Supporters, Motto's, and Parliament Robes, exactly engraved on Copper-Plates. The Fifth Edition. Engraved frontispiece by G. Thornton and 85 plates. 12mo. [132 x 100 x 40 mm. [2]ff, 560, [4] pp. Bound in contemporary calf, neatly rebacked with new black label, plain endleaves and edges. Lightly browned, but a very good copy. An early owner has written the number of the relevant plate beside each entry in the text. Previously published in 1722, 1727, 1735 and 1745, this is the final edition. This is the issue in which "Savile, Baron Pollington" begins at the top of p.560, rather than in the middle. The work was intended to form the third volume of Nichols's British Compendium.
