''Irish and English: Portraits and Impressions'' is a book written by Robert Lynd and published in 1908. The book is a collection of essays that provide a unique perspective on the relationship between the Irish and English people during the early 20th century. Lynd, an Irish journalist and essayist, examines the cultural, social, and political differences between the two nations, and explores the historical events that have shaped their relationship. Throughout the book, Lynd offers a series of portraits and impressions of both Irish and English individuals, including politicians, writers, and ordinary citizens. He also delves into topics such as Irish nationalism, the Irish language, and the role of religion in Irish society. Despite being written over a century ago, ''Irish and English: Portraits and Impressions'' remains a relevant and insightful read for anyone interested in the history and culture of Ireland and England. Lynd’s writing is engaging and thought-provoking, and his observations on the relationship between these two nations continue to resonate today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
