VERY HEAVY ITEM - for shipping outside of Ireland, please seek shipping quotation before placing order. 'The proclamation was a crucial instrument of government and administration in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries; it was also the most frequently encountered item of official print . Since they engaged with virtually every aspect of government, they were an essential complement to acts of parliament in the governance and administration of the kingdom. On average, between ten and thirty proclamations were issued annually between 1660 and 1820 . An exceptional number were issued during the 1660s, late 1680s, 1690s, and 1790s, in keeping with the then fraught condition of the country . This edition, arranged in five volumes presents the full texts of all surviving proclamations (and a guide to content of those which do not survive), covering in all some two and a half thousand proclamations and allied documents, issued in Ireland between 1660 and 1820.'.
