Incidents Of My Life: Professional, Literary, Social, With Services In The Cause Of Ireland is a memoir written by Thomas Addis Emmet and published in 1911. The book provides a detailed account of Emmet's life, including his professional career as a lawyer, his literary pursuits, and his involvement in the Irish nationalist movement. Emmet was born in Ireland in 1828 and later immigrated to the United States, where he became a prominent lawyer in New York City. Throughout his career, he defended many Irish immigrants who were facing discrimination and persecution in America. Emmet was also a prolific writer, and the book includes several of his literary works.The memoir also details Emmet's involvement in the Irish nationalist movement, including his participation in the failed rebellion of 1848. Emmet was later imprisoned for his role in the rebellion but was eventually released and allowed to emigrate to the United States.Overall, Incidents Of My Life provides a unique perspective on the experiences of an Irish immigrant in the United States during the 19th century, as well as the struggle for Irish independence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
