Publisher's Synopsis
Irish Diamonds Or A Theory Of Irish Wit And Blunders: Combined With Other Kindred Subjects is a book written by John Smith and originally published in 1847. The book is a collection of essays and observations on Irish culture, focusing primarily on the country's unique sense of humor and propensity for making mistakes. Smith explores the origins of Irish wit, tracing it back to the country's history of oppression and resistance, and examines the ways in which it has evolved over time.
