Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rambles in Eirinn These pages are the outcome of about three thousand miles of touring within the four seas of Ireland. They were written more or less hurriedly, as opportunity offered, here and there on the road, at irregular intervals, generally out of reach of books of reference; and with the sole object of sharing the writer's thoughts and feelings with certain Irish exiles on the other side of the World. It never occurred to me at first that Irish people at home would take any special interest in my efforts to describe the things I saw and-express the things I felt; and even when some of'the literary men of Irish Ireland urged me to publish the Rambles in an Irish newspaper, I ima gined that their judgment had been obscured by their friendship. Nevertheless I acted on their suggestion, and it would be more than churlish on my part not to acknow ledge the keen gratification I have felt over the reception given to the articles as they appeared in The United Irishman, and afterwards in Sinn Fein. When they appeared in The New York Daily News their reception was also most cordial, and from many parts of the United States I received kindly greetings from people I had never met, suggesting that the series should be published in book form. Like suggestions came from Ireland and from the Argentine Republic. The present publishers came forward, and this volume is the result.
