“A pleasant medley of sketches of the West of Ireland.... Dogs and gardens, picnics, the ways of servants and primitive inn-keepers, and the delights of childhood in an Irish country-house, combine to form an amusing volume which on nearly every page will recall memories to those who know the Atlantic seaboard.”—Sat. R.
“These sketches of Irish life and character are as charming and as amusing as anything that the authors of ‘The experiences of an Irish R. M.’ have ever done.”
