This vintage volume contains Lord Dunsany’s 1937 novel, 'My Ireland'. Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett (1878 - 1957) was an Irish writer and dramatist, most famous for the novels, mostly in the fantasy genre, that he published under the pen name ’Lord Dunsany’. A prolific writer, he published more than eighty books and many hundreds of short stories, as well as numerous plays, novels, and essays. The chapters of this book include: ’A. E., Tara’, ’St. Patrick’, ’Old Mickey’, ’Francis Ledwidge’, ’How the Students came to Trim’, ’A Lapse of Memory’, ’Jack-Snipe’, ’Woodcock’, ’Gray Lags’, ’Business’, ’John Watson’, ’The State of the Moon’, ’Swans’, etcetera. Many antiquarian books like this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.
