THE FAIR HILLS OF IRELAND.

Written by STEPHEN GWYNN, and illustrated by HUGH THOMSON. 31 Drawings
in black and white and Four Coloured Illustrations. Cr. 8vo. 6s.

This book is the record of a pilgrimage to historic and
beautiful places in Ireland, so arranged as to give an idea
not only of their physical aspect to-day, but also of the
history for which they stand. Places have been chosen whose
greatest fame was in the days before foreign rule, though
often, as at the Boyne, they are associated with the later
story of Ireland. In each chapter the whole range of
associations is handled, so that each reviews in some measure
the whole history of Irish civilisation as it concerned one
particular place. But in a fuller sense the chapters are
arranged so as to suggest a continuous idea of Irish life,
from the prehistoric period illustrated by cyclopean
monuments, down to the full development of purely Irish
civilisation which is typified by the buildings at Cashel.
Seats of ancient sovereignty like Tara, or of ancient art and
learning like Clonmacnoise, are described so as to show what
the observer can find to see there to-day, and what the
student can learn from native Irish Poetry and annals
regarding them.

THE MEMOIRS OF MILES BYRNE.

A new edition with an introduction by STEPHEN GWYNN, M.P. Two vols. Demy
8vo. Cloth. 15s.

"His Memoirs are of incomparable value. Nowhere else can be
found such graphic and complete accounts of the action so
renowned in Irish Story. The descriptions convince by their
reticence and restraint, and by a certain spontaneity in the
narrative, which shows Byrne to have been a literary artist of
no mean calibre.... We cordially commend these two volumes to
the study of young Irishmen.... The production reflects great
credit on the publishers."--_Freeman's Journal_.

"Everyone with a spice of adventure in his composition--and
who would care to confess that he has not?--will welcome this
handsome reprint."--_Irish
