Part had been taken to enrich powerful Englishmen and their Irish adherents; part to form the endowment of a hostile hierarchy; the rest had been given away to English and Scotch colonists, who held, and were intended to hold it, as a garrison against the Irish.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland and England: Or the Irish Land and Church Questions These few prefatory remarks are only to anticipate the many critical remarks, which I have, in a manner, invited by the following pages, and to make the best excuse I can for myself, notwithstanding, "qui s'excuse s'accuse." Part II. consists chiefly of abridged extracts from the 3rd Edition of "The People's Blue Book," - published in 1862, the 1st Edition of which was published in 1857, and the 2nd Edition within one month afterwards. I now, for the first time, acknowledge myself the Author of that hook, my reason for withholding my name being, simply, the fear that, it was premature in time and startling in effect, and, therefore, would bring upon the Author much abuse and no credit. That fear was well founded, for the abuse was unbounded. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Ireland and the Making of Britain Classic Reprint written by Benedict Fitzpatrick and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland and the Making of Britain Between the era of the Roman and the era of the N or man the Irish race was the master race in Britain, evoking the spontaneous homage and emulation of Pict, Briton, Angle and Saxon by reason of its rounded national life and rich and stable civilization, on which these exterior peoples were permitted to draw freely as the main reser voir of their aspiration and development. Withdraw out of the picture Ireland and the influences that emanated from it and it is safe to say that the history of what are now called the British Isles between the departure of the Roman and the arrival of the Norman would be represented by a blank almost as complete as the vacuum registered between the arrival of the English in what is now England and the arrival of Augustine and Aidan.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of England, Ireland and Scotland The lines upon which the government has developed to its present constitutional form are chiefly lines of resistance to Oppressive enactments in these two matters. The dynastic and military history of England, although picturesque and interesting, is really only a narrative of the external causes which have impeded the nation's growth toward its ideal of the greatest possible good to the greatest possible num ber. The historic development of Ireland and Scotland, and the events which have brought these two countries into organic union with England are, of necessity, very briefly related.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Through Great Britain and Ireland With Cromwell The house where Oliver was born is still pointed out in Huntingdon. But we can hardly tell what it looked like on that spring morning, so long ago, for it has twice been pulled down and built again. The church too in which he was christened has' now disappeared. But some things are still nu changed. The town, with its one long, narrow street and irregular market-place, is much the same as when little Oliver was first carried out into the sunshine. The Great Ouse still glides slowly by the town with many windings and twistings, from where it rises in Northampton, until it takes a sudden bend northward, and flows sluggishly onward, through fiat fen-lands to the Wash.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from England's Dealings With Ireland But there may be some confusion about these preachings if they are regarded only through the smoke and dust of actual conflict. There can be none if we step back into the calm academic groves of history, and trace their detested features as handed down from generation to generation, through the far dim centuries to the light of modern day. Let us see for ourselves what the past does really tell us about the relations of the two lands, England and Ireland, and how far that past leads us to acquiesce in the wisdom or justice of the claim that Ireland shall continue to be the Cinderella of the sister nations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transfer of Erin: Or the Acquisition of Ireland by England For a large portion of the period which elapsed from the Anglo Norman invaswn to the reign of (queen Anne, the history of Ireland was little else than a struggle to acquire or retain property and pos session of the soil. Con icts of race and creed, of rival dynasties and ambitious Chieftains, of enterprising and unscrupulous adventurers, modified or disguised the issues and the strife, but the root of Irish discontent, resentment and resistance was the systematic spoliation which finally succeeded in divesting the descendants of the ancient proprietors of all interest in their native land. Loyalty to estab lished rule and common nationality too often yielded to this sense of wrong, and had not statesmanship devised methods of readjusting what was objectionable and at times seriously imperilling the stability of the social would have continued to proxe rather a source of weakness than of strength to the realm.

Download or read book Great Britain America and Ireland written by Goldwin Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Great Britain, America, and Ireland: A Reply Of the social prejudices of the richer class in England there are no mirrors more perfect than the great public schools. I was at Eton, about the most typical of those schools, and I declare that while there are other prejudices the existence of which I remem ber clearly enough, I search my memory in vain for the slightest trace of a prejudice against Irish boys. I can say the same thing with regard to Oxford, where I never heard it breathed that an Irish student was socially or academically at any sort of disad vantage. There may have been jokes against Irishmen as there are against Scotchmen and Welshmen, as there are against John Bull, but in these there was no sting. I cannot pretend to-know e great world of London society as well as I know the little worlds of Eton and Oxford, yet I feel sure that there also, if the self-esteem of an Irishman is hurt, he owes it not to his national ity, but to something in himself. Nobody ever objects to inter marriage with an Irish family, or regards Irish blood as a ground for blackballing at a club. That. The labouring classes of England cherish no very bitter sentiment against their Irish compeers has been proved by a crucial and even cruel test. They have suffered the bread to be taken from their mouths, their condition to be bowered, their efforts to improve it hindered, and themselves in large numbers to be supplanted and driven to emigrate by the torrent of pauperism annually poured in upon them from the land of the philoprogenitive and unthrifty Celt, almost without. Utter ing a murmur of discontent. Not a finger has been raised against the Irish immigration which is the bane of the British artisan.

This book was released on 2016-06-27 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cabinet History of England, Scotland, and Ireland, Vol. 1: England The following volume is a part of an experiment to ascertain how far the most necessary portions of historical knowledge may, even in an abridged nar rative, be rendered acceptable to general readers. Neither my habitual relish for English history, nor the hazardous honor of acting with such fellow laborers, has blinded me to the difficulties of the attempt, which experience has shown to be more considerable than I apprehended they would prove. I need not compare the convenience of abridgment with the merits of circumstantial recital: both these sorts of historical composition have their use, and they must both always continue to be written. On behalf of such sketches, I may venture to take it, for granted that an outline may be useful as an introduction, and convenient as a remembrancer; that it is a particularly accessible manual for refer ence; and that it may contain all the information concerning the affairs of one people, which men of different pursuits, of little leisure, or of other coun tries, may think it necessary to have always within their reach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Legacy of Past Years: A Study of Irish History MY endeavour in the following pages is to delineate the 1ncidents in Irish history which, if studied in an impartial, candid, and critical Spirit, give, as it seems to me, an answer to the perennial question, Why is it that the Realm is no richer for Ireland? My object is that, as the average Englishman and Irishman cannot study for themselves the history of the relations between England, or Great Britain, and Ireland, extending as it does over a period of some 700 years, a short sketch of events taken in relation with the circumstances existing at the time may help to dispel passion and prejudice, and may enable those who desire it to see both sides of the question and to form a sound judgment upon it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland's Cause in England's Parliament To win with a minority is surely the highest achievement of a parliamentary party. It means an appeal to the nobler elements of the opposition. It is more than victory: it is conversion. For seven centuries, Ireland has fought England physically, - a fight of incredible courage, for the odds were hopeless: five to thirty in number, five to a thousand in wealth and organization. Weight conquered; and every century and every year added a new chain to the vanquished. But as soon as Ireland lays down the pike and takes up the word, her advance begins. She could not reach her enemy's heart with a sword: she captures her soul with an argument. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
