Title: The prose and poetry of Ireland
Description: The Preface of this book states:  Why this book? Briefly, because it is intended to supply a widely-felt want. Here, side by side, can be found the familiar letter the learned lecture, the interesting chaper of history, the soul-stirring speach, the charming essay, the fascinating tale, and the matchless poem.  It is a select little library of Irish literature in one volume.
