Excerpt from The Irish Situation Five years have elapsed since the Easter Rising of 1916; six and a half since the outbreak of European War; eight since the formation of the Ulster Volunteer Force. These are the main marking points in the evolution which has transformed Ireland from a peaceful country into a theatre of operations for three armed forces, all differing in purpose and control; these milestones mark stages for Ireland on a new track of political development. But survey of the situation must begin a good deal farther back if it is to be intelligent, or intelligible to the general reader who has not closely followed Irish affairs. At the joining point between this century and the last the South African War furnished illustration of the permanent contradictions which characterise the relations between Ireland and Great Britain.

Excerpt from The New Birth of Ireland We hear, in fact, a great deal too much about Home Rule, and a great deal too little about the Irish Problem which, whether in London or Dublin, whether by Catholic or Protestant, calls for immediate attention on its own merits; for, broadly speaking,1 'the only things worth discussing in Ireland are the things which, for political reasons, the parties never discuss.'

Excerpt from Ireland in the Last Fifty Years Perhaps one may say that the Irish Question, as it has shown itself through the centuries, goes even deeper than politics and economics. It is the result of a clash of two ways of life. England early evolved the conception of the State. We may even say that England was the first heir Of Rome, among modern nations, in the transmission of that conception. But it is a conception which under, most of its forms - and there have been several - has failed to. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Irish Question Everywhere I found the people very polite and court eons. Clergymen, landlords, tenants, laborers and busi ness men - representatives of all classes - talked freely of the troubles that were agitating the country. In some instances I have allowed these men to speak in these pages; in others have given their views in my own language. I desire to acknowledge the special courtesy shown me by Mr. Commissioner Vernon, who explained the practical working of the Land Act and gave me much valuable information besides; by Mr. H. A. Robinson, Local Government Inspector of Mayo and Galway, whose intimate knowledge of and sympathy with the poor people of those counties made his conversation extremely interesting and profitable; and by-dr. Neil son Hancock, whose familiarity with the statistics of Ireland is well known. The debates on Irish affairs in the House of Commons, which I was enabled through the kindness of Dr. Lyon Playfair to hear regularly while in London, gave me an excellent opportunity for studying the characteristics and relations of the men who have taken a leading part in these discussions; and I saw' their tactics in vigorous operation.

Yet we think that we may render some service to the public by attempting thus early to review, with the calm temper of a future generation, the history of the great Irish famine of 1847 Unless we are much deceived, posterity will trace up to that famine the commencement of a salutary revolution in the habits of a nation long singularly unfortunate, and will ac knowledge that on this, as on many other occasions, Supreme Wisdom has educed permanent good out of transient evil.
