Item description from seller

12mo, 19cm, 5th edition, viii,416p., appendices, original green cloth, gilt spine titles and gilt vignette illustration on the upper cover, some slight wear at the edges but a new fine copy. Trench's experience of the land management in Ireland ranged from the period immediately before the famine of the 1840s until Gladstone's first Land Act (1870). In 1868 he published Realities of Irish Life, a book which was an immediate success and which passed through five editions in a year. The Edinburgh Review praised its forcible and impressive description of the Irish peasantry, and likened its popular force, humour, and pathos to that in the early works of Charles Dickens.
