Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a compelling historical argument for the precedence of Irish peers in England. Beginning with the first evidence of Irish precedence in the Magna Carta, the author provides an exhaustive historical overview of numerous Acts of Parliament and other documents throughout English and Irish history. The author also analyzes the arguments against the precedence of Irish peers, such as those made in a petition to the King by English barons in 1621 and again in 1667. By countering these arguments with evidence from records, including those of the Star Chamber and the Council, the author demonstrates the consistent allowance of Irish precedence for centuries. This book is a valuable contribution to the understanding of historical precedence and offers insights into the dynamic relationship between the English and Irish peerages.
