He stayed a year and set up an ambitious programme of improvements to the estate. His 'A Tour in Ireland' was published in 1780, and "has since become a valuable source as one of the few accounts of conditions in Ireland at this time. Among others subjects Young had much to say on commercial policy and the activities of the Dublin Society; and in addition Young attacked the practice of subletting land to middlemen and made some interesting observations on the living conditions of the poor" - (ODNB).…

Hinges split & visible from the outside, all the boards are still firmly attached & the bindings are tight & intact., volume 1 spine has a split which has been professionally repaired. NOTE: Missing from VOL. I is the list of plates which should have been on page XCVII. The following collation of plates: In the first volume page xcvii (List of Plates) is missing. It's difficult to speculate why since it appears that most if not ALL the plates are present. I also believe that there are three plates (Two of them large maps that are not numbered) but are still part of the 26 total plates in the volumes. I also believe that the frontispiece portrait of COOK is considered to be one of the 26 plates since all plates including the frontispiece are used in the collation of plates. Here is a listing of what I have found along with my opinion: (VOLUME 1) 1. Frontispiece: Captain James Cook (I believe this to be plate I) 2. Plate IV is a fold out map on page 50. It should actually be attached to page 83 along with another plate also labeled as number IV. They should be plates III & IV respectively.3. Plate III on page 61 (Should probably have been listed as Plate 2) 4. Plate IV on page 83 5. Plate V on page 87 (Should be on page 91) 6. Plate VI on page 117. 7. Plate VII on page 225. 8. Plate VIII on page 277. PLEASE CONTACT SELLER FOR REST OF COLLATION. Lieut. Henry Roberts (illustrateur).…

A new edition corrected. vi, [2], 495, [7]p. Original calf, worn, but binding tight. A very good copy of the uncommon Dublin imprint.

8vo., pp. xvi, 194, [2], with half-title, portraits of Patch (stained) and of the servant Esther Kitchener, both drawn in court, a folding view and ground plan of Mr. Blight's house with handwritten (or lithographed?) key, and a facsimile of a letter from the sheriff to the stationer Jeffery; a little soiling, some marginal pencilling, untrimmed; late nineteenth-century half roan and marbled boards, spine and joints overlaid with clear tape (not nice); bookplate and stamps of the Law Library of Los Angeles County.First edition of this report of a famous trial (there was a rival version from the shorthand of Joseph and W. B. Gurney). Richard Patch (1770?-1806) was an unsuccessful farmer near Exeter who mortgaged his farms in 1803 and departed to London, where he entered the service of Isaac Blight, a ship-breaker in Rotherhithe. When Blight's financial circumstances became embarrassed he conveyed his property to Patch to protect himself from his creditors and they entered into a partnership agreement. Patch was to pay £1250 for his share of the partnership, £250 from the sale of his farms and a further £1000 by 23 September 1805, a sum that he knew he had no means to obtain.On the evening of 23rd September a shot was heard and Blight, drowsing in the back parlour, was badly wounded, dying the next morning. Patch tried to create an alibi by slamming a door to convince the servant Esther Kitchener that he was in the privy at the time of the murder. The week before, already laying his plans, he had fired at the front parlour from the garden to suggest that there was a stranger outside gunning for Blight. Despite this subterfuge he was convicted on very strong circumstantial evidence including stockings muddied from the wharf when he threw the pistol into the river. Passing sentence the Lord Chief Baron told Patch: 'you began this practice in fraud, continued it in ingratitude, and completed it by shedding the blood of your friend and benefactor.' Patch was hanged in Southwark outside the new prison in Horsemonger Lane.The case excited great interest and the trial was attended by a throng of titled individuals, including the royal dukes of Cumberland and Sussex.
