The Beauties of the Boyne and its Tributary the Blackwater. Dublin: James McGlashan, 1849. First Edition. Pp xxiv, 272. Handsomely rebound in full crushed morocco, raised bands and letter pieces to spine. A very good copy.

Illustrated with numerous text drawing (73 listed in contents page) and folded map of the Battle of the Boyne. Lacks map to Boyne & Blackwater.
