Description
Abstract (cited)

Sir Charles Haliday's collection of Tracts, Pamphlets and Broadsides was willed by his widow to the Library of the Royal Irish Academy in 1867. Known as the Haliday Collection, it is most appreciated for its wealth of material from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. However it also contains many written and illustrated sources appertaining to the years before the 1641 insurrection in Ireland and the outbreak of civil conflict in England in 1642. This paper explains how this corpus of printed material provides key insights into historical developments in the 'three kingdoms' of England, Scotland and Ireland during the lead-up to these cataclysmic events.
