The Hibernian Patriot - Jonathan Swift - Bog

The Hibernian Patriot is a book that collects the Drapier's Letters, a series of pamphlets written by Jonathan Swift in 1730. The letters were addressed to the people of Ireland and were written under the pseudonym of M.B. Drapier, a fictitious character who was a cloth merchant. The letters were written in response to the Irish government's decision to introduce a new coinage system that would have been detrimental to the Irish economy. The Drapier's Letters were a call to action for the Irish people to resist the new coinage system and to take a stand against the English government. The letters were widely read and had a significant impact on Irish politics and the economy. The Hibernian Patriot is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the political and economic climate of Ireland in the early 18th century. The book includes an introduction that provides context for the Drapier's Letters and their significance, as well as annotations that help to clarify some of the historical and political references in the letters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
