First published in 1914, this book contains the correspondence
between the philosopher George Berkeley (1685-1753), afterwards
Bishop of Cloyne, and Sir John Percival (1711-70), later Earl of
Egmont, from 1709 until Berkeley's death. The letters reflect the
growing affection between these two important figures in
Anglo-Irish history, and give intimate first-person accounts of the
events of each man's life and career. Extracts from Percival's
journal and a biographical note on the lives, careers and
friendship of both men are also included. This book will be of
value to anyone with an interest in eighteenth-century Anglo-Irish
politics.
