Excerpt from A Short History of Ireland

MY endeavour in writing this little book has been to present a clear and impartial account of the chief features of Irish' History. In view of the notable gaps which exist in the scientific treatment of social and economic questions, I have purposely dealt mainly with political events. I have also intentionally neglected the important subjects of Celtic mythology and literature, as being beyond the scope of an elementary historical text book.

A work of this kind is necessarily based upon secondary sources I have, therefore, appended a short list of those authorities to which I am indebted.
