Excerpt from Two Centuries of Life in Down: 1600-1800In the following pages an attempt is made to bring again the fair show of life to the skeleton of bookish story. The story is that of the first successful Plantation in Ireland; the life is the life of its settlers and their descendants; the scene, broadly, the territory in North Down granted by James the First to James Hamilton and Hugh Montgomery; the period, that beginning with the arrival of the adventurers in 1605-6, and ending with the dawn of the industrial era in the first decade of the 19th century, - a round two hundred years.The introduction of the personal note will help to clearer understanding of what a reader may expect to find if he adventures further. In the beginning, this book was a boy's awed contemplation of a rudely - cut monument built into the wall of the old church of Bangor in Down.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
