Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Douglas Hydea scholar, linguist, and lifelong promoter of Gaelic culture and heritagewas elected the first President of the Republic of Ireland in 1938. My American Journey provides a compelling firsthand account of a little-known chapter from the early life of this seminal Irish figure: the fundraising trip through the United States he undertook on behalf of the Gaelic League in 19056. This collection of journal and diary entries was originally published in the Irish language in 1937 and is now presented for the first time in a bilingual edition, complete with newly discovered archival material and extensive illustrations. Hydes work on this voyage was both culturally and politically vital. The funds he raised contributed to the hiring and training of Irish-language teachers and organizers who traveled across Ireland spreading the Gaelic League message, helping to sustain a cultural revolution which, in turn, gave rise to the political uprising from which Irish sovereignty ultimately emerged. With a new foreword by current Irish President Michael D. Higgins and punctuated with numerous images, My American Journey sheds light on an important segment of the life of one of Irelands most underappreciated leaders. This collection of journal and diary entries, now published for the first time as a bilingual edition (Irish and English), is a compelling first-hand account of Douglas Hyde's successful seven-month fundraising odyssey through the United States in 1905-6.
