Book excerpt: Excerpt from Connemara and the Neighboring Spots of Beauty and With Remarks on Sea and Fresh Water Fishing, Irish Character, Archaeology, Botany, Etc IN these pages I have simply endeavoured, however inadequately, to describe, by means of pen and lens, the West of Ireland as I myself see it. I like exceedingly the country I write about, and also its inhabitants, and if, by this book, I can persuade others to make the acquaintance of both, my purpose is served. The West of Ireland, as I experienced myself at first, is rather a puzzling part of Ireland to find one's way about in, so I have introduced one or two sketch maps, which, if consulted, will, I think, make the way plain. For the drawing of these, under my instructions, I desire to thank Mr. H. Wellbeloved. As I have, during the last few years, contributed numerous articles - touching more or less upon several of the places and topics mentioned in these pages - to many journals in London and the provinces, should any reader fancy he or she has a dim recollection of having read something like any of the passages before, the surmise is probably correct.
