WARE, SIR JAMES. The whole works of Sir James Ware, concerning Ireland. Revised and Improved. Dublin, 1739-1745. Plates. Fol. 2 vol. L. P. R. M.

In vol. 1, Portrait of Sir J. Ware by Vertue, and in vol. 2, another Portrait from Thane's Autography are inserted. Also Archbishop Newcome's continuation of the Archbishops and Bishops of Ireland to 1800 is inserted in the volume. Very few copies of this continuation were printed.

This book is now scarce and dear even on the small paper; but on Large Paper there appear to have been only six copies printed. There is to the first volume in the small paper a different Title Page, and a small difference in one paragraph of Harris's Preface; Harris in the L. P. preface announces a 3rd vol. of Ware on the Civil Affairs of Ireland, but finding too few materials, he printed another Preface and Title Page, though with the same day's date, in which he says he shall make his 3rd vol. consist of Ware's remarks on Irish writers, and that he shall also publish a separate volume in his own name; which he did, with the title of Hibernica. This Large Paper copy contains Parry's Dedication in Latin, and also Harris's Dedication to the Archbishop of Armagh.

Seventeen plates belong to vol. 1. Twenty-one plates to vol. 2. (All the plates of the Monks, Friars, &c. are on small paper inlaid in this copy, and most probably in the five other copies.)
