 rhe style is intensely interesting." — Schoolmaster, 



" It IS well that the youth of England, who have entered Into a serious inheritance 

 and who will soon be the voters of England, should have some conception of the 

 country with whom they are so closely bound up, and for whose past their fathers are 

 «o heavily responsible. We do not know of any work so fitting for imparting to them 

 this knowledge as the present, which, therefore, we heartily commend to all teachers 

 as the best text-book of Irish history for the young." — Daily Chronicle.
