This book is a personal record of the ever-present charms of Ireland which have uniquely permeated its history, its romance, and its literature, based on the authors' impressions of this country and inspired by their belief that are a large number of interested people who would be glad to have an attractive presentation of some of the sights, scenes, historical, and romantic beauties of Ireland. The aim of the book was not to approach the completeness of an historical record, it fills, rather, the gap which lies between, in view of the greater interest which is daily being shown in all things relating to Ireland – its literature, its history, its architecture, and its arts.Volume 1:IntroductoryA Travel ChapterThe Land and Its PeopleRomance and SentimentReligious Art and ArchitectureThe Scotch-Irish BlendIrish IndustriesDublin and About ThereKilkenny to Cork HarbourVolume 2:Queenstown, Cork, and BlarneyGlengarriff and Bantry BayKillarney and About ThereAround the Coast of LimerickThe Shannon and Its LakesGalway and Its BayAchill to SligoThe Donegal HighlandsLondonderry and the Giant's CausewayAntrim and DownThe Boyne ValleyBelfast and Armagh
