THE SUNNY SIDE OF IRELAND - JOHN O MAHONY R LLO...

These pages attempt to make better known the large part of Ireland which is served by the Great
Southern and Western Railway Company  and while doing so to realise Shakespeare's words: An
honest tale speeds best being plainly told. If they succeed in these endeavours  they will
satisfy the compiler. No inexorable route is insisted upon  but no suggestion is stinted which
may help the tourist to enjoy fully the beautiful country he passes through and a beautiful
country it truly is  be it approached from Athlone  its north-western gate  by the Shannon 
where  In the quiet watered land  the land of roses  Stands Saint Kieran's city fair  or from
its south-western side  in the kingdom of Kerry  where the ocean leans against the mountains 
and the storm-swept peak of Skellig Michael makes the most westerly citadel of Christ in the
Old World! Everywhere within its broad borders  swift-rushing rivers  mirror-like lakes  and
mountains tiaraed in the skies  delight the vision and gladden the heart. [...] Reprint of the
second edition of the guide to Ireland following the routes of the Great Southern and Western
Railway. Covers sights of Dublin  Limerick  Cork  Waterford  Killarney  Galway and many more.
Originally released in 1902.
