Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Henry Grattan: The Stanhope Essay 1902 Henry Grattan was born in Dublin in 1746. He came of a well-known Anglo-Irish family, members of which, during the last half-century, had several times held high office in the State. At the time of his birth his father was one of the foremost men at the Irish Bar, and later on, in 1761, became Recorder of the city. On his mother´s side Grattan could point to a similar record. Her family, the Marleys, claimed descent from the de Merlys who ´came over with the Conqueror,´ and her father was successively Solicitor-General, Chief Baron of the Exchequer, and Chief Justice of Ireland. Grattan´s boyhood was spent in the purlieus of Dublin. His father´s house was in the lawyers´ quarter, and he went to school with the sons of his father´s colleagues, amongst whom was the future Lord Clare. In 1763 he entered Trinity College, and took his degree four years later. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
