Life in and about Galway during Penal times. The peasantry are portrayed as well as the citizens and the upper classes. The plot is somewhat rambling, yet the book is interesting.

Fourth ed., 1889. (PHILADELPHIA: _Porter_). 1.00. Period: the Famine years and Smith O’Brien rising. The sufferings of the people sympathetically described. The Young Ireland movement dwelt on both from an English and an Irish standpoint. All through the book constant contrast between English and Irish characters, showing their incompatibility, and on the whole the superiority of the English; yet the book shows sympathies with Home Rule, to which one of the chief characters is converted. There are some descriptions of scenery in Connemara. =KEEGAN, John.= ⸺ LEGENDS AND POEMS. Pp. 552. (_Sealy, Bryers_). 3_s._ 6_d._ 1907.
