About this book

Lady Morgan wrote the spiritual novel "The Wild Irish Girl" in 1806. Through the letters that Horatio, a young Englishman exiled to his father's Irish estate, writes, the story is told. After his forefathers were driven from their home, he finds a crumbling castle and the ruins of the Catholic Gaelic nobles.

While studying Irish history and culture, he falls in love with Glorvina, the Prince of Inismore's daughter. The book is a foundational work in the rhetoric of Irish nationalism and a deeply nationalistic effort.
