Excerpt from The Cause of Ireland, Pleaded Before the Civilized World As to this book itself and the purpose for which it is sent forth, some words Of explanation are due to the reader. It aims at showing, from authentic evidence, gathered principally from non-irish and non - Catholic sources, the enormous wrong done by England to the Sister Island. In this single word I would have the reader include the manifold injustice and Oppression of ages. If there exists a fair-minded man, in any quarter Of the globe, who calls into question the fact that Ireland has solid grounds for claiming redress from Great Britain for such wrong; or who doubts whether Irishmen can justify, by reference to the past, their undying hatred Of British domination, and their passionate resentment of the state Of inferiority, poverty, and degradation to which chronic misrule has brought their native land; - let such a man read this book, and judge for himself. If, on the other hand, there exists anywhere a man Of Irish descent, whom the persistent misrepresentations Of the English Press, or the misleading voice Of the public Opinion formed by it, have induced to believe, that the Irish are an incurably inferior race, and that the perma nent misery of which Ireland complains is but the nat ural outcome of such inferiority, - I only ask him to study carefully the testimony herein adduced to demonstrate the contrary.
