Sadleir 1410. Woolff 4093. – First edition. – „The Martins of Cro’ Martin“ is novel about the exploits of a young man named Paul Goslett, who comes to the small Irish village of Cro’ Martin and falls in love with the daughter of a local politician. It depicts the fall of a Connemara estate in the period between Catholic Emancipation (1829) and the Great Famine (1845-1849). – „Thackeray visited Lever on his own Irish tour in 1842–3, and dedicated to him his ‘Irish Sketch Book.’ He frankly warned him against his literary tendency to extravagance, and in personal intercourse strongly advised him to quit Dublin for London. Lever, however, preferred the continent. In 1845 he resigned his editorship, and in May was living at Brussels, reduced, he says, to his last fifty pounds, but still apparently driving about with his carriage and pair. After wandering for two years with his family over Germany and Italy, and doing little work except desultory writing for magazines, he settled at Florence in August 1847. There he produced ‘The Martins of Cro’ Martin,’ a fine picture of West of Ireland life“ (R. Garnett in Dictionary of National Biography, vol. 33, 1893). – Slightly brownstained in places, beautiful decoratively bound copy. Schlagwörter: Illustrated books, Illustrierte Bücher, Ireland |
