Slight wear to extremities and traces of foxing, but otherwise a very good copy. Armourial bookplate. Illustrated by hand coloured etching as frontispiece and by diagram in text. Thomas Morton (1764-1838), playwright, wrote some twenty five plays for the English theatre. 1792-1828, several of these being popular successes, including A Roland for an Oliver. Richard Lalor Sheil (1791-1851), was an Irish politician and paywright, whose first play was transferred form Dublin to Covent Garden in 1816. Sheil was an MP for four separate English and Irish constituencies, 1830-51 and also served as Vice-President of the Board of Trade, Master of the MInt and as a diplomat. The play Evadne, first performed and published in 1819, is said to have been based on 'The Traytor' by James Shirley (1596-1666). Both plays were reissued several times throughout the nineteenth century. William Oxberry(1784-1824) was an actor and playwright, first appearing in Covent Garden in 1807. He edited The New English Drama, twenty two volumes of plays, 1818-24. The author of Glenwar has not been identified; several editions were published including the US, in the 1820s.
