Excerpt from The Irish Contribution to America's Independence "It becomes nations as well as individuals not to think of themselves more highly than they ought, but to think soberly. Self-exaggeration detracts from their character without adding to their power; but a greater and more dangerous fault is an habitual depreciation of their real resources and a consequent want of self-reliance." - Godkin. One of the faults chargeable against the Irish people, and particularly Americans of Irish descent, is that they are ignorant of the achievements of their race in the past. This is probably due to the fact that the people of Ireland have for generations been taught to believe that everything respectable has come from England and that the English are a superior race. Indeed, an attempt has been made to impress the same theory on the minds of Americans, and perhaps the most pernicious falsehood promulgated by pro-English writers, who exert a subtle influence in spreading the gospel of "Anglo-Saxon superiority," is that America owes her liberty, her benevolent government, and even her prosperity to her "English forefathers" and "Anglo-Saxon blood." The truth is that the impartial history of Ireland is the story of England's shame, while the history of America offers abundant evidence of the innate greatness of men of the Irish race.

Excerpt from Ireland's Important and Heroic Part in America's Independence and Development The important and heroic part taken by Ire land at home and her people here, in the great achievement of American Independence, and also, the large contribution by the Irish race towards American civilization and indus trial development have been, through design or otherwise, almost entirely omitted from our American histories. Yet, no country or race has contributed so much towards these principal causes which have resulted in Ameri ca's greatness today, than Ireland at home and her people here.

Excerpt from A Hidden Phase of American History: Ireland's Part in America's Struggle for Liberty The work divides itself easily into three parts - one devoted to laying bare the heart of the Irish race in Ireland during the War for Independence as beating in sympathy with the revolted Colonies in America, and therein refuting the statements of Bancroft founded upon one-sided quotation and misread information, and involving suppression of important historical facts. In its way it is as conclusive as the other parts of the work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Ireland a Study in Nationalism Dear Lady Desart, It was through your great kindness in 1913 that I was enabled to begin this book. I had most in mind, at that time, the direct upbuilding of which you and Captain Cuffe had given such models in Kilkenny - the woollen mills and the woodworks and tobacco culture. When I came back to the United States, as I wrote you, I was thinking almost altogether of the needless disorganizations of Irish life, and I believed there were corresponding organizations of American life which could be adapted to Ireland. An American might not easily imagine the salient educative facts that would strike an Irishman, but I was convinced that we could apply to ourselves much that had been quietly developing in the ways of equipping and directing and cultivating American citizenship. In spite of Ulster and Sir Edward Carson, national and imperial issues were scarcely in my mind at all, until August, 1914. Since August, 1914, we have seen Ireland grow more and more uneasy in the powerful currents that are sweeping through the world. With the coming of the war I confess I lost hold on my first intentions and have never been able to take them up again.

Excerpt from The Irish in the American Revolution and Their Early Influence in the Colonies Sixty years ago when Michael Doheny was asked by Gavan Duffy and Thomas Davis to contribute a volume to the Irish Library they were then issuing in Dublin, he chose for his sub jcet the history of the American Revolution. His first idea, as he was addressing himself entirely to Irish readers, was to write only of the deeds of Irishmen during that eventful period, or at least to group together in the history the men of his own race who took a prominent part in it. He abandoned that intention, however, feeling that his impartiality might appear questionable if he selected them as leading charac ters in the history of a great people, of whom they formed but a proportionate part.

Excerpt from The Economic Case for Irish Independence Several causes have delayed the issue of this little book. First a Censor's hand interposed that not unreasonably detected no great love to its master. Then when he at length removed his interdiction, the stress of other things to do gave me little leisure to bring to date certain figures that had fallen behind time. In passing it now for publication it is only meces sary for me to say that for all figures outside Ireland or England I have relied on the latest issue of The Statesman's Year Book. For Ireland or England I have bravely relied on English official Returns; not that I suggest that any unnecessary reliance need be placed on those Returns, for many before me have complained of the arbitrary procedure of the calcula tion adopted in them in matters as between Ireland and England; but rather because no other figures are available, and it is certain that any argument by an Irishman based on those Returns is committed in advance to moderation. The Irish case can amply afford the moderation so wisely insisted on by imperial reckoners. I have sought to avoid reference to legislation or administration where it might be retorted that these were conditioned by the European War. Strictly that reference is of the essence of the argument. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Irish in America So, too, the lesson as to the practical value of organiza tion as a weapon of political warfare has not been lost, and coupled with the organized effort of her people here, has enabled Ireland to carry forward a land agitation which, in its beginnings seemed based upon a forlorn hope, but which now, in the light of recent events, seems certain to be crowned with an abiding success. Indeed, the fruits of a struggle renewed again and again during the eighty-five years that have elapsed since the union, are almost within reach, and the land agitation which at first was only a phase of the irrepressible con fiiet, is likely to prove the key which is at last to solve the problem of a home government for Ireland. Of this result the American Irish may well feel hopeful, and without them it is not too much to say its realization would have been indefinitely postponed.
