THE LATEST AND MOST EXTENSIVE WORK OF REV. HENRY "W. CLEARY, D. D., Editor of the New Zealand Tablet. An Impeached Nation BEING A Study of Irish Outrages A bulky work involving great research. Brought up to date. 426 pages of closely-printed matter, with a -searching double-column index of 24 pages; printed on beautiful paper, and handsomely bound in cloth gilt. The scope of the book is set forth in the following words from the Preface : — ' The object of the present writer is to set forth the real facts and figures of crime in Ireland ; to compare these with the statistics of crime in such admittedly law-abiding countries as England and Wales, Scotland, etc.; to examine into the motives and the methods of both the official and the unofficial exaggeration of the delinquencies of the Irish people; to present to the reader detailed evidence of this curious phase of political agitation; and to advance large and outstanding facts and features of Irish life which go to show that the wrongs perpetrated by the law, by the ministers of the law, and by the ruling caste, against the Irish people, have been far graver, more studied, and more systematic than the offences committed by the people (oftentimes by starving peasants in defence of their last scanty meals of potatoes) against the law. The reader will judge whether or no he has succeeded.' Price, 4s 6d. Apply Manager, N.Z. Tablet, Dunedin; and of all Booksellers.
