First published in 1886, this book contains volumes I and II of Irish author Emily Lawless’s seminal novel 'Hurrish'. Set in the Burren, County Clare to the backdrop of the Irish Land Wars of the 1880s, the story revolves around the assassination of a landlord and deals with the theme of Irish hostility to English law. Highly recommended for those with an interest in Irish history and nationalism. The Hon. Emily Lawless (1845-1913) was an Irish historian, gardener, poet, entomologist, and novelist of the early modern period. Other notable works by Lawless include: 'A Chelsea Householder' (1882), 'A Millionaire’s Cousin' (1885), and 'Ireland' (1885). Read & Co. Classics is proudly republishing this novel now in a new edition complete with an introductory chapter by Helen Edith Sichel.
