Mr. Bagwell has evidently had on his side time, means, impartiality, the rare and valuable gift of sympathy which is almost necessarily lacking to Englishmen who are called upon to deal with this inseparable nuisance of their Em- pire, the knowledge which no foreigner can have, and the want of which leads the best-informed foreigners into such ludicrous mistakes. . . . To everybody who wants a trust- worthy summary, easy of consultation, of a period of Irish history, his book will be most valuable. . . . But it is lacking in the instructive qualities of history. . . . The reader finds himself constantly lost in a wilderness of de- tails, with only the remotest idea of what Mr. Bagwell is endeavouring to show by means of these details.—Sat. Rev., Ixi. 239.
