""A Personal Narrative Of Those Transactions In The County Wexford, In Which The Author Was Engaged, During The Awful Period Of 1798"" is a historical account written by Thomas Cloney in 1832. The book details Cloney's personal experiences during the Irish Rebellion of 1798, specifically in County Wexford. Cloney was a member of the United Irishmen, a revolutionary group seeking independence from British rule. The book is a first-hand account of the violence and bloodshed that occurred during the rebellion, including battles, massacres, and the torture and execution of prisoners. Cloney also provides insight into the political and social climate of the time, including the reasons behind the rebellion and the oppression faced by the Irish people under British rule. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Irish history, particularly the events leading up to the Easter Rising and the Irish War of Independence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
