The fourth volume in the historical series by Julia Corner (1798-1875). Originally published in the 1840s, this is "A New Edition, with Chronological Table." The Ninth Thousand. No publication date, but the publisher has dated his catalogue 1856. Green cloth binding, stamped with a rather wonderful heraldic "view" of Ireland on the front cover, which includes Glendalough, an Irish wolfhound, a harp, a henge, and what appears to be a happy shepherd greeting the Virgin Mary (Quercus welcomes other interpretations). Clean text, very bright and unfoxed; 194 pages, 24 pages of Study Questions, and 8 pages of the publisher's adverts. Fold-out map is present. The front paste-down contains a list of the titles in "Miss Corner's Historical Library." A student of the time has practiced his signature on the second endpaper. The spine has faded, but the lettering and armorial decorations are still bright. The fade affects the edges as well. But still, a delightful book. Size: 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall.
