Thomas Cromwell 1792-1870 worked for Longman the publisher before becoming a unitarian minister. He was an enthusiastic antiquary and besides several other works wrote the text to accompany the engraved views for the series Excursions through England and Wales Scotland Ireland. The Excursions through Ireland was planned as a 12 volume work to be published in monthly numbers which was to cover the entire island and to contain 600 engravings later reduced to 400. In the event interest was insufficient and after two volumes had been published the work began to experience difficulties although it did struggle on to complete a third volume with a reduced complement of plates before collapsing. The scope and method of the work is described on the wrappers of the parts. It notices that most works on Ireland had dealt both in text and illustration with a restricted highly repetitive range of places mainly the principal towns and cities. "A work like the present therefore comprising the topography statistics history and antiquities of the whole country has become imperatively necessary. The editor will be an actual visitant to every place he describes; and his manuscript will be submitted to the inspection of gentlemen whose local knowledge as residents and antiquaries is indisputable previously to its issuing from the press. It should be noticed also that the work will by no means be found a dry detail of sites buildings ruins agricultural produce &c; but that it will be the editor's chief endeavour to render it an image of the country and the people it portrays - luxuriant wild original and interesting - all in no common degree" The first volume focuses on Dublin city and the second explores the villages and towns of Cos. Dublin Louth Meath Westmeath Kildare and Longford. Each volume has its own separate detailed index. The plates softly executed line engravings mainly after drawings by the distinguished Irish antiquarian and artist George Petrie provide particularly in the proof state in these volumes an excellent view of the contemporary landscape villages antiquities bridges &c.

Three reports from the Quakers during the Civil War on their ministry amongst the "Colored Refugees" of Virginia & Washington DC reporting on the conditions and needs at Fort Monroe Camp Barker Craney Island Alexandria Hampton Norfolk etc. Conditions are tough in the refugee camps but none wish to return to where they have fled from. "Slaves have been abandoned and we must help. Don't we owe them for our prosperity--- enjoying indirectly from the unrequited labor of these people." Encyclopedia Virginia writes on their website- "In this report dated May 1864 the Committee on Colored Refugees who were representatives of the New York Yearly Meeting of Friends gives its assessment of the needs of the formerly enslaved people escaping behind Union lines and how Quaker charity efforts were meeting them in contraband camps across Virginia including Alexandria. One of their agents Harriet Jacobs wrote her own letter documenting what she saw in Alexandria and Washington D.C. For Quakers the abolition of slavery was a moral and religious imperative."

The number "26" has been scrawled on the title. Many institutions in UK and USA have copies but I have found no auction or catalogue reference suggesting great scarcity. This view is supported by the instigator Robert Amadeus Baron Heath of a facsimile edition for the Philobiblon Society "Reprinted in fac-simile for Private Circulation 16th May 1867" in an unknown number of copies. In an autograph letter enclosed in my copy he says "I possess what I believe to be the only copy of the original"!. Note: The importance of the text is indicated by its appearance in "The Making of the Modern World: The Goldsmiths'-Kress Library of Economic Literature 1450-1850". Locke uses the title phrase in his "Second Treatise" e.g. "Whoever therefore from thenceforth by inheritance purchase permission or otherways enjoys any part of the land so annexed to and under the government of that common-wealth must take it with the condition it is under; that is of submitting to the government of the common-wealth under whose jurisdiction it is as far forth as any subject of it."
