Unrecorded novel.- The Irwin Family, a Domestic Story, 2 vol., first and only edition, vol.1 with portion of lower endpaper restored, original wrappers, rebacked, ink titles to upper covers, rubbed, preserved in custom drop-back box, [not in Garside, Raven and Schowerling], large 12mo, Dublin, Holmes & Charles, 1804.⁂ A seemingly unrecorded novel, we can find no trace of this novel in institutions or contemporary reviews. In a surprisingly prescient passage in the preface, the unknown author comments "But if this, is doomed like hundreds which have proceeded it, to sink into oblivion, I must console myself with the idea of having amused myself, and been of some little use to the paper manufactory of my country."
