OPINIONS OF THE PRESS ON "IRELAND."
" Many who are children no longer will be glad of this compact but able introduc- tion to the story of Ireland's woes. The form of the volume is particularly attractive." British Weekly. "We heartily congratulate Mr. Barry O'Brien upon this interesting little volume. The 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 so 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.
