BOOKS BY STEPHEN GWYNN.

THE FAIR HILLS OF IRELAND.

Written by STEPHEN GWYNN, and illustrated by HUGH THOMSON. 31 Drawings in black and white and Four Coloured Illustrations.  Cr. 8vo. 6s.

This book is the record of a pilgrimage to historic and beautiful places in Ireland, so arranged as to give an idea not only of their physical aspect to-day, but also of the history for which they stand.  Places have been chosen whose greatest fame was in the days before foreign rule, though often, as at the Boyne, they are associated with the later story of Ireland.  In each chapter the whole range of associations is handled, so that each reviews in some measure the whole history of Irish civilisation as it concerned one particular place.  But in a fuller sense the chapters are arranged so as to suggest a continuous idea of Irish life, from the prehistoric period illustrated by cyclopean monuments, down to the full development of purely Irish civilisation which is typified by the buildings at Cashel.  Seats of ancient sovereignty like Tara, or of ancient art and learning like Clonmacnoise, are described so as to show what the observer can find to see there to-day, and what the student can learn from native Irish Poetry and annals regarding them.

FISHING HOLIDAYS.

By STEPHEN GWYNN.  Cr. 8vo. 3s. 6d.

“Very pleasant volume....  The general reader of angling books will find much to interest him; and those thinking of visiting the Donegal district will certainly find many useful hints and alluring accounts of sport.”—­Fishing Gazette.

THE MEMOIRS OF MILES BYRNE.

A new edition with an introduction by STEPHEN GWYNN, M.P.  Two vols.  Demy 8vo.  Cloth. 15s.

“His Memoirs are of incomparable value.  Nowhere else can be found such graphic and complete accounts of the action so renowned in Irish Story.  The descriptions convince by their reticence and restraint, and by a certain spontaneity in the narrative, which shows Byrne to have been a literary artist of no mean calibre....  We cordially commend these two volumes to the study of young Irishmen....  The production reflects great credit on the publishers.”—­Freeman’s Journal.

     “Everyone with a spice of adventure in his composition—­and
     who would care to confess that he has not?—­will welcome this
     handsome reprint.”—­Irish Times.
