Description
By Emily Lawless. Here is the story of the nation of Ireland, written in the days before the poison of political correctness destroyed simple factual accounts of the history of our people.
Told in the classic, clear, and unambiguous style of historians unfettered by the demands to be “politically correct,” these classic works are a treasure trove of facts and history which will not be found in the modern “court historian” version which have been censored by the powers-that-be.
A beautiful reproduction of an amazing book written in 1891. More than 75 original illustrations meticulously recreated from the original.
