New York: Lynch, Cole & Meehan, 1873. Thomas Nicolas Burke (1830-1883), a Dominican priest, was noted as a "great patriot" and speaker. He toured America in 1872 to refute the anti-Irish sentiments of the English historian Anthony Froude. Burke is referenced by James Joyce in "Dubliners" for his speaking ability. This is a Very Good copy of the First Edition, quite scarce despite his popularity. Reddish-brown cloth binding, blindstamped & filled with black and gilt. Clean text; 324 pages, "With an Appendix, Containing a Review of the So-called 'Bull' of Adrian IV, by the Most Rev. P.H. Moran, Bishop of Ossory; and 'An Analysis of the Rebellion of 1641,' by Mathew Carey." The text is quite readable . Issued as part of the "Irish American Library." Contemporary pencil signatures on the FFEP and the rear paste-down. Rubbed a bit at the margins, mildly bumped; a solid copy of a scarce book, rather important in the development of Irish nationalism. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. First Edition. Decorative Cloth. Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.…
