LibriVox recording of The Glories of Ireland by Joseph Dunn and P.J. Lennox Read in English by April6090; kavanagh; Colleen McMahon; Lynne T; VfkaBT; Kate Follis; Owen Cook; Jenny Adamson; JamesMcAndrew; John; Linda Olsen Fitak; Kalynda; KHand A collection of essays on Ireland compiled by Joseph Dunn and PJ Lennox. As stated in the Preface to the books "...we have been forced to the conculsion that the performances of the Irish race in many fields of endeavor are entirely unknown to most people, and that even to the elect they are not nearly so well known as they deserve to be. Hence there came to us the thought of placing on record, in an accessible, comprehensive, and permanent form, an outline of the whole range of Irish achievement during the last two thousand years." - Summary by KHand
