BOOKS TO ENTERTAIN
THE LIGHTER SIDE OF IRISH LIFE
By George A. Birmingham. Its title suggests unbridled jocularity—and it is in fact full of inimitable fun; but there is a basis of solid thought and sympathy to all the mirth. While replenishing the common stock of Irish stories, Mr Birmingham adjusts our conception of the race. Mr Kerr's sixteen illustrations in colour form a gallery of genre studies, sympathetic and yet sincere, that allows us to look with our own eyes upon Ireland as she really is to-day. 288 pp. Buckram, 5/- net. Velvet Persian, 7/6 net.
IRISH LIFE & CHARACTER
By Mrs S. C. Hall. "Tales of Irish Life" will remind the reader more of Lever or Sam Lover than of "Lavengro." It is effervescent and audacious, ringing with all the fun of the fair, and spiced with the constant presence of a vivacious and irresistible personality. The sixteen illustrations by Erskine Nicol are in precisely the same vein, matching Mrs Hall's sketches so manifestly that it is strange they have never been united before. To look at them is to laugh. 330 pp. Buckram, 5/- net. Velvet Persian, 7/6 net.
