The father recorded many local traditions which he accepted as true including those concocted for his benefit according to Sidney Lee by John Jordan a Stratford poet who was his chief guide throughout his visit. ------------ In his pursuit of information about Shakespeare Ireland learned from some of the oldest inhabitants that manuscripts had been moved from Shakespeare's residence at New Place to Clopton House at the time of the Stratford fire. To Clopton House he went where he learned from the tenant that the manuscripts he was seeking had been destroyed only a week before. His disappointment was extreme. 'My God! Sir you are not aware of the loss which the world has sustained. Would to heaven I had arrived sooner!' ------Today he is best remembered today as the chief victim of the Ireland Shakespeare forgeries created by his son William Henry Ireland. But alas that is a tale for another day. ----------- Ref English Short Title Catalog t79991; Abbey Scenery 427. Cox III182.

HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE --<br /> Samuel Ireland was a weaver-turned-engraver who became obsessed with Shakespeare. This work is a primary record of the "Stratfordian" industry in its infancy. Ireland is best remembered today as the tragic dupe of his son's forgeries; he died defending the authenticity of the Shakespeare papers his son had actually forged in their home. This volume represents Ireland at the height of his career before the scandal broke his reputation and his spirit.<br /> <br /> SUBJECTS: 18th Century Travel British Topography Shakespeareana Aquatints Literary Forgery River Avon Samuel Ireland Fine Bindings Illustrated Books.
