The Geraldines, Earls of Desmond, and the Persecution of the Irish Catholics is a historical book written by Daniel Daly and published in 1847. The book provides a detailed account of the Geraldine family, who were one of the most powerful and influential families in Ireland during the medieval period. It also explores the persecution of Irish Catholics during this time, particularly under the rule of Elizabeth I and the Tudor dynasty.The book begins by tracing the origins of the Geraldine family, their rise to power, and their important role in Irish politics and society. It then delves into the religious and political turmoil of the 16th century, which saw the Tudor monarchs attempt to impose Protestantism on the predominantly Catholic population of Ireland. The book describes the various attempts by the Geraldines to resist this persecution, including their involvement in the Desmond Rebellions of the late 16th century.Throughout the book, Daly provides a vivid and engaging portrayal of the Geraldines and their struggle against the oppressive policies of the English monarchy. He also sheds light on the broader historical context of this period, including the wider political and religious conflicts that shaped Ireland's history.Overall, The Geraldines, Earls of Desmond, and the Persecution of the Irish Catholics is an important historical work that offers valuable insights into the complex and often turbulent history of Ireland. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Irish history, politics, and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
