Book Overview

To The Magistrates, The Military, And The Yeomanry Of Ireland (1798) is a historical document written by Richard Musgrave during the Irish Rebellion of 1798. The book is addressed to the magistrates, military, and yeomanry of Ireland, and it aims to provide guidance on how to suppress the rebellion and maintain order in the country. Musgrave was a loyalist and a member of the yeomanry, a paramilitary force that supported British rule in Ireland. In his book, he argues that the rebellion was a result of the influence of French revolutionary ideas and that it was necessary to use force to quell the uprising. He also provides advice on how to identify rebels and how to deal with them, including the use of torture and execution. The book is considered controversial due to its support for brutal tactics and its lack of sympathy for the rebels. However, it is also a valuable historical source as it provides insight into the mindset of loyalists during the rebellion.
