The Flight of the Earls is a historical book written by George Hill in 1878. It tells the story of the departure of the Earls of Tyrone and Tyrconnell, two Irish noblemen, from Ulster in 1607. The book is based on primary sources, including letters and documents written by the Earls themselves, and provides a first-hand account of the events that led to their flight from Ireland. The Earls' departure was a significant event in Irish history, and the book explores the political and cultural context of the time, including the tensions between Ireland and England, the role of the Catholic Church, and the complex relationships between different factions within Irish society. Hill's writing is clear and engaging, and he provides a detailed and nuanced account of this important moment in Irish history. Overall, The Flight of the Earls is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in Irish history or the political and social dynamics of the early seventeenth century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
