Synopsis
Excerpt from The Works of Jonathan Swift, D.D., Dean of St. Patrick's, Dublin, Vol. 7: Containing Additional Letters, Tracts, and Poems, Not Hitherto Published; With Notes, and a Life of the Author
It was the practice of Irish farmers to wear out their ground with ploughing, neither manuring nor letting it lie fallow, and when their leases were near expired, they ploughed even the meadows, and made fuch havock, that the landlords by their zeal to prevent it were betrayed into this pernicious measure.
A sea port in Devonshire, at that time the principal market in England for Irish wool.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the 1720s Wood's halfpence controversy. Halfpenny and farthing coins were scarce in Ireland. William Wood was granted a patent by the English crown in 1722 to produce copper coins for Ireland. However, the Irish people believed the coins, produced from a mixture of copper and brass, were significantly less valuable than the amount for which they were intended to pass. Led by the author, the Irish people resisted attempts by the English Crown to force acceptance of this currency and ultimately succeeded in having the patent withdrawn in 1725. This publication shows how public agitation can influence political outcomes. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334476860_0
