Excerpt from A Readers' Guide to Irish Fiction The present guide TO irish fiction is intended by the author as the first part of a work in which it is hoped to furnish notes on books of all kinds dealing with Irish subjects. Before explaining the scope of this section of the work it may be well, in order to forestall wrong impressions, to say at once what it is not. In the first place, then, it does not lay claim to be a bibliography. By this I do not mean that I am content to be inaccurate or haphazard, but simply that I do not aim at exhaustive completeness. In the second place, it is not a catalogue of books by Irish writers. Lastly, it does not deal exclusively with books printed or published in Ireland. The author's aim has been to get together and to print in a convenient form a classified list of novels, tales, etc. (whether by Irish or by foreign writers), bearing on Ireland - that is, depicting some phase of Irish life or some episode of Irish history - and to append to each title a short descriptive note. Two things here call for some explanation, viz., the list of titles and the descriptive notes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in our edition. We do, however, repair the vast majority of imperfections successfully; any imperfections that remain are intentionally left to preserve the state of such historical works.

Excerpt from Ireland in Fiction: A Guide to Irish Novels, Tales, Romances, and Folk-Lore The arrangement is quite new. In the former work the books were classified according to subject matter in this they are arranged under the names Of the Authors, these names being arranged alphabetically. Some lists are appended in which the books are classified as historical novels, Folk-lore, Gaelic Epic and Romantic Literature, &c. A combined title and subject index has been provided, both of which were lacking in the earlier book. Some new matter is given in the Appendix, in particular some notes on fiction in Irish periodicals. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Carefully documented, the book presents details of the publication of Irish fiction in Ireland, England, North America, Australia, as well as several other European countries. Written for literary scholars and students and for anyone interested in Ireland and its literature, this book also constitutes and essential tool for historians, librarians, collectors of Irish books, and antiquarian booksellers.

Excerpt from Ireland in Fiction: A Guide to Irish Novels, Tales, Romances, and Folk-Lore The first edition of Ireland in Fiction was destroyed by fire in the course of the Rising in Dublin at Easter, 1916. A few copies survived but the book has now been for some time quite out of print. I have taken advantage of the opportunity thus afforded for a new edition by endeavouring not only to bring the work up to date but to improve it in various ways. The improvements may be summarised as follows: - (1) Information has been obtained about nearly all the books left without notes in the previous edition. (2) Notes on many books overlooked in the first edition have been added, the total number of books annotated being now over 1,700. (3) A large number of new biographical notes on the authors have been inserted. This edition contains, in fact, nearly five hundred and fifty entirely new notes on books and authors. (4) A great many minor additions and corrections have been made. (5) The Appendices have been revised, that dealing with Irish fiction in periodicals being much enlarged. (6) The titles of the books have been continuously numbered throughout, a more precise mode of reference being thus provided. The aim and scope of the book have, I hope, been sufficiently dwelt upon in the preface to the former edition. It remains for me to express my gratitude to the many who have helped me in various ways in the preparation of this new edition. To the following in particular I wish to express my special indebtedness. For work in the British Museum Library I have to thank Mr. Frank Maedonagh and Mr. J. D. Noonan, Mrs. M. Pearde Beaufort (to whom the Index is entirely due), and Miss C. J. Hamilton. I am under a similar obligation to Miss A. Cuming for work in the Bodleian.

Excerpt from Legends and Stories Ireland Though the sources whence these stories are derived are open to every one, yet chance or choice may prevent thousands from making such sources available; and though the village crone and mountain guide have many hearers, still their circle is so circumscribed, that most of what I have ventured to lay before my readers, is, for the first time, made tangible to the greater portion of those who do me the favour to become such. In one story alone - "Paddy the Piper" - I have no claim to authorship, and this I take the earliest opportunity of declaring, and as I have entered upon my confessions, it is, perhaps, equally fair to state that although most of the tales are authentic, there is one purely my invention, namely, "The Gridiron."

Excerpt from Irish Life in Irish Fiction No attempt has, I believe, been made before to bring into a single survey the Irish novelists of the first half of the nineteenth century and their work. This book aims to give - between a few introductory remarks upon Irish society and a literary estimate - a sketch of the vista of Irish life opened by the novelists, and, in doing this, to consider their novels most carefully where they seem, in one way or another, representative of national life and character. The value of the fiction of the period before the great famine is on the whole historical in the larger sense; not artistic. It takes on significance chiefly as a remaking of Irish life, which, by virtue of such artistic qualities as it possesses, does what history proper can hardly do, - creates the illusion of the life of the past. In the novels may be seen just how the racial antipathies, the religious antagonisms, the sleepless consciousness of past wrongs, and, in short, all the discords that broke harshly upon the everyday intercourse of man and man, found expression.

Excerpt from Creel of Irish Stories The ef'fect of Letterglas's solitude and verdure somehow seems to be heightened if one notices its single visible sign of human handiwork. This is a road-track, now all but quite grassed over, leading into the valley from its open end, where the Clonmoragh highway passes, and stopping aimlessly at the slope immediately below the Nick, having first flung two or three zig-zag loops up the hill side. A rust-eaten, handleless shovel, and the wreck of an overturned wheelbarrow, still mark the point where the work was abandoned on a misty morning in April, more than fifty springs ago; but the track itself is now merely a most faint difference of shade in the sward, which has crept back again indefatig ably, even where the austere road-metal had been thrown clattering down.
