Publisher's Synopsis

All On The Irish Shore: Irish Sketches (1903) is a collection of short stories written by Edith Somerville, an Irish author. The book depicts the daily life and customs of the people living in the rural areas of Ireland during the late 19th and early 20th century. The stories are written in a humorous and satirical tone, and they provide a unique insight into the Irish culture and traditions. Some of the stories feature recurring characters, such as the eccentric Miss Muffet and her loyal servant, Biddy. Other stories focus on the interactions between the Irish and the English, highlighting the tension and misunderstandings between the two cultures. Overall, All On The Irish Shore: Irish Sketches is a charming and entertaining read, offering a glimpse into a bygone era of Irish history and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
