Two-volume 19th-century history of Tudor rule in Ireland.
Ireland Under the Tudors by Richard Bagwell is a landmark historical work examining English governance and policy in Ireland during the Tudor period. These two volumes, bound in leather with marbled boards and gilt titling, offer deep insights into colonial administration, resistance, and political complexity from the 16th century.
This antique set remains a foundational source for Irish and British historical study, especially for researchers interested in the Reformation, Crown policy, and nationalist responses.
Condition: Matching leather-bound volumes with marbled boards and endpapers. Wear to spine ends and labels, rubbing on covers. Solidly bound and internally clean. Aged but complete and handsome.
Publication: Longmans, Green & Co., circa 1870s
