Aggiungi al carrelloFull-Leather. Condizione: Fair. Volume one leather boards are detached and the spine is missing. Volume two front leather board detached, back board and spine missing and front marble end page, previous owners old name label on front inside board. Both volumes have gilt side page edges and previous owners initials on the title p…age. Suitable for re-binding. First and only edition, edited by the Cornish poet Richard Polwhele, but sponsored and published by a literary society in Exeter - and largely written by them. Polwhele's preface gives a good deal of information about the contributors, who include Samuel Badcock, John Bamfylde, Hugh Downman, Edward Drewe and Stephen Weston - as well as Polwhele himself. The only named female contributor is 'Miss Hunt', the daughter of Dr Rowland Hunt of Stoke Doyle, Northants, who wrote an elegy on Dunkeswell Abbey (a little north of Honiton). This is Mary Hunt (1764-1834), who is said to have been a friend of the Bowdler family, and to have taught Princess Charlotte (d. 1817). She spent the latter part of her life at Exeter and is buried at the Cathedral there.

He and his eldest son Pierce both served with the Middlesex (Duke of Cambridge's Own) Regiment during the Boer War. The Colonel also served during WWI. On his retirement in 1903 he went to Kilbyrne, Doneraile, in North Cork, he was Deputy-Lieutenant and High Sheriff (1910) for County Waterford. He was also Justice of the Peace and a member of Cork County Council (1925-28). As an active farmer, he was much respected. He was a founder member of the Doneraile Golf Club and took part in many local activities. There is no doubt that he contributed much to the Cork Historical & Archaeological Society.
