add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the two books. The books are: "Ireland in the Last Fifty Years," by Ernest Barker; "The Irish Issue in Its American Aspect," by Shane Leslie. This informing book of Barker's on the modern history of Ireland and on Irish conditions in general is for the scholar rather than the general reader. The scope of the volume is largely the changes for the better in Ireland during the last fifty years-the time during which Great Britain was becoming one of the real democracies.
