Excerpt
The subject of Ireland is one which has, for some years, been a very prominent one, and is likely, I fear, for some time yet to occupy a large share of public attention. The discontent, manifested in the troubles of recent years, has had its root in an old sense of grievance, for which there was, unhappily, only too abundant reason.

I downloaded your mobi version before I came across the ePub, Crutledge. I was surprised to see, though, how well the Mobi (converted through Calibre) displays on my Soni. Perfect. If I hit any snags during the read, I'll come back and download your ePub. Should be a fascinating book. Thanks again. Neil
