Excerpt from The Irish Question: I, History of an Idea; II, Lessons of the Election
In the year 1868, I was closely associated with the policy of disestablishing the Irish Church. It was then, not unfairly, attempted to assail the cause in the person of its advocate. To defeat this attempt, an act became necessary which would otherwise have been presumptuous and obtrusive. In order to save the policy from suffering, I laid a personal explanation before the world. The same motive now obliges me to repeat the act, and will I hope form a sufficient excuse for my repeating it.
The substance of my defence or apology will, however, on the present occasion be altogether different. I had then to explain the reasons for which, and the mode in which, I changed the opinions and conduct, with respect to the Church of Ireland then established, which I had held half a century ago.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers deep insights into the evolution of Ireland's struggle for self-determination. The author, a prominent figure in the Irish Home Rule movement, delves into the complex interplay of politics, economics, and social change that shaped the Irish question. From the 1868 disestablishment of the Irish Church to the heated debates leading up to the 1886 Home Rule Bill, the book traces the author's journey as an advocate for Irish autonomy. It illuminates the challenges and triumphs of the movement, exploring the interplay between Irish nationalism, British politics, and the wider European context. The author compellingly argues that the Home Rule movement was not inherently separatist, but rather sought to reconcile Irish aspirations with the maintenance of the British Empire. The book also highlights the importance of understanding the reciprocal relationship between England and Ireland, suggesting that England's perspective on its own national identity was shaped by its relationship with its neighbour. Overall, this book offers a valuable historical account and thoughtful analysis of the Irish Home Rule movement, providing readers with a comprehensive understanding of its origins, development, and significance.
