A scathing response to Henry Grattan's address to the citizens of Dublin, this pamphlet by Patrick Duigenan offers a robust defense of the Protestant Ascendancy in Ireland during a period of intense political and religious debate. This fourth edition includes additional material, such as the address of the Catholics of Dublin in 1795, providing valuable context to the ongoing struggle for Catholic Emancipation.
Duigenan's work serves as a powerful example of conservative political thought in late 18th-century Ireland. His detailed arguments and passionate defense of the existing order offer a fascinating glimpse into the complex dynamics of Irish society at a crucial moment in its history. Students of Irish history, political science, and religious studies will find this a valuable primary source.
