About this book
A Journey Throughout Ireland is the 1834 travel account by Henry David Inglis (1795-1835), the Scottish writer who in his short career produced popular travel volumes on Spain, the Tyrol, the Channel Islands, and Ireland. Inglis crossed Ireland in three seasons of 1834 to record what he saw of the country in the years immediately before the Great Famine. The book covers the towns, landscape, agriculture, religion, and condition of the poor in pre-Famine Ireland, and was widely read in Britain as a sober first-hand report rather than a polemic. Inglis travelled under his own name on this trip after publishing his earlier travel books under the pseudonym Derwent Conway, and the Irish volumes are now valued as a baseline record of Irish life on the eve of catastrophe. This edition reprints the original text in two parts. Inglis died the year after publication. The book remains a primary source for nineteenth-century Irish social history.
