Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Birth of Ireland Mr Balfour once observed that the Irish Question had almost become synonymous with English polities. He was not far wrong, for it is perfectly true that for close upon a century the Nationalist party has dominated with local grievances the whole course of Imperial policy. Nevertheless the Irish Question is not, intrinsically, a party question at all, nor indeed should it ever have been allowed to become one. It shall therefore be the primary intention of this volume to analyse the situation down to those constituent elements into which it must eventually resolve itself before its anomalous factors can be discussed; polities proper will be introduced only when they become absolutely essential to a right understanding of the tangle into which they have thrown economic controversies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland a Study in Nationalism Dear Lady Desart, It was through your great kindness in 1913 that I was enabled to begin this book. I had most in mind, at that time, the direct upbuilding of which you and Captain Cuffe had given such models in Kilkenny - the woollen mills and the woodworks and tobacco culture. When I came back to the United States, as I wrote you, I was thinking almost altogether of the needless disorganizations of Irish life, and I believed there were corresponding organizations of American life which could be adapted to Ireland. An American might not easily imagine the salient educative facts that would strike an Irishman, but I was convinced that we could apply to ourselves much that had been quietly developing in the ways of equipping and directing and cultivating American citizenship. In spite of Ulster and Sir Edward Carson, national and imperial issues were scarcely in my mind at all, until August, 1914. Since August, 1914, we have seen Ireland grow more and more uneasy in the powerful currents that are sweeping through the world. With the coming of the war I confess I lost hold on my first intentions and have never been able to take them up again.

If the case were so, English statesmen would, indeed, be liable to heavy censure and condemnation. Common justice, however, requires that they be heard before being condemned. If it can be made to appear in their behalf that not only the prosperity and progress, but the very existence of the British Empire as a Power in the world imperatively demands a continuation of every one of those plagues and scandals in Ireland, and that no British minister dares, on peril of his head, propose the abatement of any single one of them - then it will be clear that whoever may be the guilty party, tlzey are acquitted.

Yes - we have been long waiting, in our free homes beyond the Atlantic, for the end of these awful trials, prolonged century after century down to the present year, and borne with a fortitude and a hopefulness, which speak more eloquently than inspired voice or pen for the heroic temper of the Irish soul. We have contributed by word and deed, as the trial deepened, and the struggle became ever fiercer, to soothe the suffering whose source we were powerless to remove, and to aid the brave men and true who were battling for the cause of the Martyr-Nation.

This dissertation received favour able notice in several newspapers and periodicals, and numer o'us requests were made tome, both personally and by letter, urging me to amplify and extend the work, and, in its enlarged form, to give it to the public. In acceding to the request, I have been mainly inﬂuenced by the fact that there exists no recent history of Ireland in the German language; and that in View of the peculiar file which this island has for many years played in the history of the British empire, not only professional students of history, but also many educated people feel the necessity of more accurate information respecting the past of that country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Irish Rebellion in 1798: Memoirs of the Union, Emmett's Insurrection in 1803 A few remarks will be necessary in placing, in its completed state, before the public, a memoir already issued in a serial form. From works long since given to the world - documentary papers - manuscripts for the first time printed - and private details of men still living, and who themselves enacted a leading part during that troubled era, this history has been compiled. The records of the Insurrection of 1798, with rare exceptions, have been written by ardent partisans - who, yielding to a political bias, have coloured the narrative of the transactions of these distracted times, and detailed events, rather as they wished they should have been, than in reality as they were. Care has been taken to collate these conflicting statements, and, by strict impartiality, reach truth as nearly as it can be arrived at. That the author has been successful in the attempt, he would infer by an Irish conclusion. Ultra partisans - Tyrian and Trojan - have expressed dissatisfaction, and impugned his impartiality; Protestant remonstrances been accompanied by Roman Catholic complaints; one party arraigning him of a secret leaning to the principles of ascendancy, met, on the other side, by a countercharge of indulgency towards the disaffected. "Every man in Ireland is a partisan," was the observation of an intelligent foreigner - and the observation is correct.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Divided Irish: An Historical Sketch This work is republished with additions, in the hope that it may be useful to general readers. When first published, in 1888, an able London Review stated that it laid too much stress on the clerical element in Irish politics. Recent history, however, apparently justifies the views then expressed. When the clergy of the Irish majority withdrew their support from Mr. Parnell he lost influence with a decisiveness that astonished even his shrewd and practical mind. Whether he lost it deservedly or not may be a matter of opinion. But of the fact and its result there can be no doubt, proving that in politics, clerical influence among the Irish masses remains the chief and ultimate guide.
