Excerpt from Dawn in IrelandWriting a book about Ireland at this time is necessarily an adventurous business. So much is happening so swiftly. The position changes not from month to month, but from day to day, and with the change in position there is a consequent change in the nature and power of the forces at work in the country. Indeed, it might be held that a book written in April would be out of date in June and hopelessly obsolete in August.But behind all that is transitory there remain certain permanent things. It is with affairs in Ireland as with the waves of the sea which amid all their transformations remain the same in substance, obedient to the same forces. This book has been made as an attempt to indicate some of the enduring facts and forces which underlie the appearance of Ireland to-day. Puzzled by endless apparent contradictions, observers are tempted at times to yield to hopelessness, and to declare that they can never understand the ways of that beautiful, perplexing land.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
