Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dawn in Ireland Writing a book about Ireland at this time is necessarily an adventurous business. So much is happening so swiftly. The position changes not from month to month, but from day to day, and with the change in position there is a consequent change in the nature and power of the forces at work in the country. Indeed, it might be held that a book written in April would be out of date in June and hopelessly obsolete in August. But behind all that is transitory there remain certain permanent things. It is with affairs in Ireland as with the waves of the sea which amid all their transformations remain the same in substance, obedient to the same forces. This book has been made as an attempt to indicate some of the enduring facts and forces which underlie the appearance of Ireland to-day. Puzzled by endless apparent contradictions, observers are tempted at times to yield to hopelessness, and to declare that they can never understand the ways of that beautiful, perplexing land.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Forgotten Small Nationality: Ireland and the War And when peace comes, Ireland, with the other small nations, will stand at the doors of The Hague conference, and will claim her rights from the community of nations. Shall peace bring freedom to Belgium and Poland, perhaps to Finland and Bohemia, and not to Ireland? Must Irish freedom be gained in blood, or will the comity of nations, led by the United States, shame a weakened England into putting into practice at home the principles which are so loudly trumpeted for the benefit of Germany?

Download or read book Great Irishmen in War and Politics Classic Reprint written by John E. Redmond and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-04-30 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Great Irishmen in War and Politics HE publication Of this book must be of great value to our cause. It has been extremely difficult to get people in this country to realise that the appeal which we made at the commencement of the War, to Irishmen, to join the Army, was not addressed only to Irishmen in Ireland herself, but to Irishmen everywhere, and the extraordinary history of the Tyneside Irish Brigade, Which describes how five battalions of Irishmen were enrolled in a comparatively short space of time on the Tyneside, shows how magnifi cently our appeal was responded to by the Irishmen of Great Britain. The doings of the Tyneside Irishmen in the Field have reflected credit on the Irish race, and I am glad that in this book is written a permanent record of their devotion and heroism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Land War in Ireland: Being a Personal Narrative of Events in Continuation of "a Secret History of the English Occupation of Egypt" Fourth of the series of my Egyptian Memoirs, will be found to contain little about Egypt. Beyond a few incidental allusions to the Drummond Wolff convention, and the account of a three months' visit I paid to Cairo in I 887, it deals with nothing relating to Eastern or Mohammedan affairs. Almost the whole of it is devoted to Ireland, the westernmost of all the European nations and the most Christian, and in this way it stands in complete contrast to my other experiences.

Download or read book From Cloister to Camp written by Dominic Devas and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from From Cloister to Camp: Being Reminiscences of a Priest in France, 1915 to 1918 These pages are a simple personal record of my experiences of war in France. They lay no claim to be history, and yet neither are they romance, but simply the gathering together of the abiding impressions of one whose part in the war was infinitesimal, but for whom the war itself was the daily and all-pervading factor in life during three and a half years. Of my work as a priest, to say all is impossible and so I say little. It was always day by day, but more especially towards the end, the continuous setting in which my life ran, profoundly influencing myself personally and - one longs to hope - not without some helping influence for those with whom my days were spent. Neither do I mention, except rarely, the inestimable friends I made amongst men and officers. To know them was a real privilege, and to live with them a real pleasure. Their memory at least remains with me as a sacred possession, for in all too many cases their death came to me as an irreparable loss. Part II. may perhaps be allowed to have a significance of its own. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

But there is another side to this matter which it is both our duty and our interest not wholly to ignore. What would have been the condition of Ireland by this time if the Catholic clergy of Ireland had not during the whole period of Irish agitation from first to last denounced the Secret societies and refused the sacraments to those who joined them It was thus lately, and it was thus long since. The Secret Societies will not soon forget the great Bishop Doyle, who waged against them an incessant war, or his last appeal to them shortly before his premature death, My people, you have broken your Bishop's heart.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST • An "extraordinary ... profoundly moving" history (The New York Times Book Review) of the American Civil War that reveals the ways that death on such a scale changed not only individual lives but the life of the nation. An estiated 750,000 soldiers lost their lives in the American Civil War. An equivalent proportion of today's population would be seven and a half million. In This Republic of Suffering, Drew Gilpin Faust describes how the survivors managed on a practical level and how a deeply religious culture struggled to reconcile the unprecedented carnage with its belief in a benevolent God. Throughout, the voices of soldiers and their families, of statesmen, generals, preachers, poets, surgeons, nurses, northerners and southerners come together to give us a vivid understanding of the Civil War's most fundamental and widely shared reality. With a new introduction by the author, and a new foreword by Mike Mullen, 17th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
