About this book
One Irish Summer has contents listing cathedrals, government, universities, landlords and the landless, as well as a summer in Ireland. The description of St. Patrick’s identifies Charles Wolfe as the writer of The Burial of Sir John Moore and a former dean of the cathedral. A cathedral monument commemorates the family of Richard Boyle, the first Earl of Cork, who erected the monument himself.
The account describes siege commemorations and says thoughtful people deplore the celebrations for keeping religious animosities alive. The journey passes around Crough Patrick, described as rising to 2,510 feet almost directly from the Atlantic Ocean. The description gives the summit a flat plain and records the remains of an ancient chapel and a large Celtic cross.
