Of the bogs, and loughs of Ireland by Mr. William King, Fellow of the Dublin Society, as it was presented to that Society.

Abstract

We live in an Island almost infamous for Bogs, and yet, I do not remember, that any one has attempted much concerning them; I beleive it may be of use to consider their Origine ; their conveniencys, and incovenienys ; and how they may be remedyed, or made usefull.
