 | | Thomas Leland, senior fellow of Trinity college, Dublin, wrote a History of Ireland from the Invasion of Henry II, ending with the treaty of Limerick (1691), which was published in 1773 in three volumes. |
 | | He writes in a lucid, straightforward, but inanimate style, and, though some of his statements and comments are capable of correction by modern scholars, his narrative, as a whole, is accurate, sober and impartial. |
 | | The History of the Military Transactions of the British Nation in Indostan, from 1745 to 1761, by Robert Orme, published in two volumes (the second in two sections) in 176378, is a contemporary memoir, for Orme was in India in the companys service during practically the whole time of which he wrote. |
