Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Robert Emmet IN the first volume of the London and Dublin Magazme appeared a series of papers under the title of Robert Emmet and his Contemporaries. It was then, as usual, a time of trouble in' Ireland, more aggravated than ordinary amongst the discontented and while the system of government was reprehensible, the popular notion of removing it offended largely at once against policy and prudence. Agitation had become of a normal character and as adverse parties indulged in their own preconceived views, even good men hesitated to. Believe in the efficiency of any immediate remedy. Under these circumstances one man indulged the hope that it was possible, by representing to all what adverse parties thought and said, to influence public opinion in favour of common sense and patriotic honesty. He believed that if precept Was strengthenedby example the end contemplated would be, to some extent, obtained. Under these impressions the pub lis her of the magazine admitted the papers embodying the story, the thoughts, and the conversations of Robert Emmet. The commercial spirit was not, of course, abandoned in the project, and perhaps a small sensation was anticipated. The expectation was, to a great extent, fulfilled, for the periodical was successfiil'; and the Emmet Papers no sooner appeared, than they were published by the small printers in every possible form, and circulated most extensively and when the last paper appeared the whole were very promptly published in a small volume. The work was repub lished in America, in various forms and sizes 5 and a Manchester publisher, a late and much esteemed magistrate of that city, embodied its contents in a memoir of Robert Emmet.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Robert Emmet: His Birth-Place and Burial Sometime since after reading for a second time Dr. R. R. Madden's Memoir of Robert Emmet, I resolved to place before Irishmen at home and abroad some entirely new facts and circumstances relating to the birth-place and burial of Emmet. My researches were made with a twofold object first, to ascertain beyond all doubt or question where Robert Emmet was born, and, if possible, to exactly locate the house; and next, to throw further light upon the much-disputed question as to the actual place of his interment. Most of the particulars I now make known have not, I think, previously transpired. The task was undertaken in the hope of adding something to the store of National know ledge concerning the soul-stirring personality of Emmet, whose memory shall never die as long as Irishmen continue to think out the problem of accomplishing their country's freedom, following as the lode-star of her destiny the only true ideal by which he of whom I write was inspired to make the effort to break her chains.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Robert Emmet Robert, born in 1778. There had been three other children of the same name previous to the date mentioned, but each had died shortly after birth. The name of Emmet has apparently long died out in Ireland, and Madden quotes a letter from Thomas Addis Emmet, sent from America in 1806 to Peter Burrowes, in which the following passage occurs: There is not now in Ireland an individual that bears the name of Emmet. I do not wish that there ever should while it is connected with England, and yet it will perhaps be remembered in its history. In another letter to his daughter he expressed the h0pe that no one of the name would ever put foot on the soil of Ireland while she remained under British rule.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Robert Emmet: A Historical Romance I have called this book a historical romance. Romantic, certainly, the story is in itself, but it is a romance of fact. Not merely in the broad outline, but in every detail of the narrative, (with a single exception, of no great historic importance, duly avowed in the note which I append, ) this is a faithful recital of things which happened in the year 1803. The names are the real names of the actors in those scenes; and I have used little more imaginative licence than was conceded to historians who assigned to generals and to politicians speeches suitable to this or that occasion. How far it is justifiable to give the colours of fiction to a historical narrative, my critics, if I have any, must decide. At least, there is no attempt made in these pages, to dissect the character of a national hero. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

It is also more in accordance with history; and the principal characters, such as Emmet's and Maria Curran's, which in the old drama had been left, as it were, in obscurity, are, in this, placed in appropriate prominence; which all renders this drama more interesting and important.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Footprints of Emmet The writer having, in view of the Emmet Centenary, prepared a series of photographs of places, etc., with which the name of Emmet is associated, considered that it might not be inappropriate that they should be accompanied by a short narrative sketch that would serve the purpose of explaining them. With this object he has collated from authoritative sources, as comprehensively as circumstances permitted, the authenticated facts of the young patriot's life story. He has endeavoured, at the same time, to make this little volume something more than a mere compilation, and trusts that it presents features sufficiently original to justify its appearance in conjunction with the many excellent biographies that have already appeared. In preparing the book the writer has of necessity drawn largely upon the materials supplied by Dr. R. R. Madden, whose arduous labours have preserved to us so much that relates to the 1798-1803 periods; and to whom we are undoubtedly indebted for almost all that is known of Robert Emmet. Dr. Thomas Addis Emmet, of New York, grandson of the celebrated leader of the United Irishmen of the same name, and grand-nephew of Robert Emmet, continued the researches of Dr. Madden. His investigations have confirmed many of the facts adumbrated by Dr. Maddens statements, and have thrown a flood of light on the mysterious circumstances underlying the Insurrection of 1803, particularly with regard to its actual origin and the real part played by its devoted and ill-fated leader. Dr. Emmet embodied the result of his investigations in his monumental work, The Emmet Family, a valuable historical record, printed in 1898. This interesting work, which was issued in a form that makes it one of the most beautiful and artistically produced books issued in America in recent years, was intended for merely family purposes, and only a limited number of copies were printed. Consequently it remained comparatively unknown until the approach of the Emmet Centenary year brought some of the facts it contained more prominently forward. In compiling the present sketch the writer has made full use of Dr. Emmet's valuable work, and has drawn upon it to an extent which would not be justified had the book been published for general circulation and otherwise available. The writer was enabled to submit the present short sketch to Dr. Emmet before publication. The author of The Emmet Family was kind enough to read the MS., and expressed the opinion that "from an historical standpoint the facts are correctly stated in accord with our present knowledge."
