The Three Edwards - War and State in England 1272 - 1377
This book is an excellent introduction to this eventful period in history, offering students of history and the Middle Ages a fascinating insight into the reigns of three very different sovereigns: * Edward I – a confident and masterful conqueror of Wales * Edward II – defeated by the Scots, humiliated and deposed * Edward III – triumphant against the French, but reigned through the ravages of plague. |

A demand for a Second Edition of the "Illustrated History of Ireland," within three months from the date of the publication of the First, consisting of 2,000 copies, is a matter of no little gratification to the writer, both personally and relatively. It is a triumphant proof that Irishmen are not indifferent to Irish history.
