A boy in Eirinn

It was part of the "The Children of Nations" series which was designed to acquaint English children with children from different parts of the world, or more specifically, the British Empire. The goal was to describe in detail the daily life of this non-English child so that the reader would come away with the "atmosphere" of the foreign locale. In "A Boy in Eirinn", Finn O'Donnell travels around the countryside, barefoot and poor and encounters merchants, travelers, and peasants. - List item
