Re: Re: Dublin 1660-1860

Sorry to read, last week, of the death of the Knight of Glin, particularly so soon after the loss of Maurice Craig.

In the case of the Knight, once you overcame the initial hostility to the notion of over-privilege and title, you couldn’t help being mesmerized by the astonishing level of expertise. The 18th century in particular has lost two of its greatest interpreters, these are two men it will not be easy to replace.
