''The Son of Erin or The Cause of the Greeks'' is a play in five acts written by George Burges and published in 1823. The play tells the story of Dermot O’Neil, an Irishman who joins the Greek War of Independence against the Ottoman Empire. As he fights alongside the Greeks, Dermot falls in love with the daughter of a Greek chieftain, but their love is threatened by the political turmoil of the time. The play explores themes of nationalism, love, and loyalty, and features a cast of characters from both Irish and Greek backgrounds. ''The Son of Erin or The Cause of the Greeks'' is a historical drama that sheds light on the struggles of two nations fighting for their independence, and the personal sacrifices made by those who fought for their cause.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
