Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Ireland These two gentlemen proceeded to fulfil their mission, but their expostulations pro duced no effect, and they found that the only effect of their arrival was immediately to turn all thoughts upon Wexford, where it was determined to proceed without delay. Fitzgerald, willingly or by constraint, re mained with the insurgents, and marched with them that evening to a new encamp ment at the Three Rocks, not more than two miles and-a-half from Wexford. Three Rocks is the termination of a long but not high ridge of hills, called the Mountain of Forth, separating the baronies of Bargy and Forth from the rest of the county. Col clough returned direct to Wexford, where he arrived early in the evening, and having waited in the Bull-ring till the officers and other gentlemen in the town had assembled, he gave them an account of his proceedings, and announced that it was the intention of the rebels to attack the town. He then called on Mr. Harvey at the jail, with whom he agreed to return next day and change places with him, after which he set off through the barony of Forth to his own dwelling at Ballyleigh, which was about ten miles distant from Wexford.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland's Story: A Short History of Ireland for Schools, Reading Circles, and General Readers "Ireland's Story" has been written not as a record of the dead past, but as a beacon for the living future. It is inspired by a belief in the Irish race, now spread far beyond its island home, through many lands, beneath many skies. The Irish race has a great part to play in the history of the future; and present and future can be understood only by a knowledge of the past. The story of Ireland may be viewed in many ways. First, as a part of universal history: its ancient traditions are rich and full of clues to the races of the early world; its archaic treasures are abundant; its old stone monuments wonderfully preserved. In illumining the shadowy dawn of early Europe, and especially of those northern lands whose children now lead the world, no country can aid us so much as Ireland. Then we must reckon Ireland's early heroic poems and tales, ampler than those of any European land, save only Greece and Italy, and giving us the truest and richest picture of the archaic life of Europe, still untouched by Greece and Rome. The great personages of the Irish epics stand out as clear as the heroic figures who fought around Troy, or the inspired leaders of Attica and Sparta and the City of the Seven Hills. Next comes Ireland's part in the Drama of Faith. Ireland may well be called the new Ark of the Covenant; for in the little western isle was stored up the treasure of the Gospel, brought thither first by Patrick.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Ireland, Vol. 1 of 2 There is but one History of Ireland deserving the name - that of Mr. Leland. But it is a heavy work, overlaid with the rubbish of barba rous and unimportant details, and disfigured with a degree of prejudice and unfairness still more objectionable. Leland writes like a gentleman and a scholar; but he had no clear views of his subject; and he was unable, or unwilling to disengage himself from the prejudices of the period in which he lived. It is to be feared that the latter was very much the case; for throughout his misrepresentations and glosses, we are here and there struck with glimpses of a conscience ill at ease. He is not, however, often chargeable with misstating facts, but he discolours them with observations strangely at variance with the natural deductions from the matter to which they relate.
