Synopsis
Excerpt from Ireland and Its Rulers, Vol. 1 of 3: Since 1829
Irish people. They are rich in Saxon self? reliance, and they are also endowed with Celtic sensibility and ardour. Their character was formed in the eighteenth century, when Ireland possessed an Aristocracy, partly resident, and a Legislature. Their blood is nearly as hot as that of the Catholics. The anglo-irish have imbibed far more of the national character of Ireland, than they have imparted of their here ditary English qualities. For matters purely intellectual they are as Celtic as if they had not a drop of British blood. Exclusive insti rations have alone preserved them from being completely merged in the national character of Ireland.

Product Description
Excerpt from Ireland and Its Rulers, Vol. 1 of 3: Since 1829 In conversing with an accomplished friend of mine in Ireland, M. de Tocqueville observed to him "All your evils spring from this - you are two nations here." There is deep truth in that remark. Protestant Ireland represents a totally different idea from Catholic Ireland; even to this day, the Anglo-Irish race preserves characteristics distinct from the great mass of the Celtic population. But the Protestants of Ireland also differ essentially from their English brethren in Britain. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
