Publisher's Synopsis

In Wicklow and West Kerry is a travelogue written by John M. Synge. The book is a collection of essays that describe the author's travels to the rural areas of Ireland, specifically Wicklow and West Kerry. Synge's writing is vivid and evocative, painting a picture of the Irish landscape and its people. The book is a fascinating glimpse into Ireland's past, capturing a way of life that has since disappeared. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Irish culture and history.It was heavy running, and we both began to get weary. Then I caught my foot in a briar and fell. Immediately the young man rushed to the wall and began scrambling up it, but just as he was drawing his leg over the top I caught him by the heel. For a moment he struggled and kicked, then by sheer weight I brought him down at my feet, and an armful of masonry along with him. I caught him by the neck and tried to ask his name, but found we were too breathless to speak.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
