Irish Pedigrees, or the Origin and Stem of the Irish Nation (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Irish Pedigrees, or the Origin and Stem of the Irish NationEminent historians have written the History of Ireland but it may be matter for surprise that the Irish Gene alogies were never published. This surprise, however, lessens when we reflect that the distracted state of Ireland in the bitter past, and the passions that have agitated her different sects and parties may have supplied motives for their suppression. Those passions are happily subsiding I therefore trust there is no irregularity in now unveiling the Irish Genealogies.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
