Wild Irishman
'Wild Irishman' Summary
The Wild Irishman provides a glimpse into the prejudices and stereotypes held by some Englishmen towards the Irish in the late 19th century. Crosland's harsh criticisms of Irish character and customs offer a distorted and unflattering portrayal of Ireland and its people. While the book may have some historical value as a reflection of the prevailing attitudes of the time, it is essential to approach it with a critical understanding of its biases.Book Details
