Thomas Davis, Selections from his Prose and Poetry

The book opens with the best of his historical studies his masterly vindication of the much-maligned Irish Parliament of James II. Next follows a selection of his literary, historical and political articles from The Nation and other sources, and, finally, a selection from his poems, containing, it is hoped, everything of high and permanent value which he wrote in that medium The Address to the Historical Society and the essay on Udalism and Feudalism.
