The Green Book: Or Gleanings From the Writing-Desk of a Literary Agitator (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book is a collection of verses and prose by an Irish author in the early 19th century. Many of the poems are political in nature and satirize the British government, the Protestant Ascendancy, and the established (Anglican) Church of Ireland, of which the author was a vocal critic. The prose pieces include a history of the anti-Union movement and a defense of Irish military honor against its English detractors. The author was a prominent member of the Comet Club, founded in 1831 to oppose the collection of tithes by the Anglican Church and advocate for the right of Irish Catholics to practice their own religion freely. This book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the complex political and religious landscape of Ireland in the early 19th century and provides an insightful perspective on the origins of Irish nationalism.
