Excerpt from Ireland
The scope of the volumes and the mode of treatment adopted in them suggest their suitability for use in the higher forms of secondary schools. A notable reform is in course of accomplishment in the teaching of geography. The list of place-names is making room for the more rational study of a country in relation to those who dwell in it, and of these dwellers in relation to their environment.
In the planning of this series the need of a volume dealing with Ireland as a whole soon became manifest. Such matters as topography, geology, archaeology, etc., have little to do with political boundaries, and it is not possible to present a true picture of Ireland in a volume dealing with a single province. On the other hand the detailed treatment appropriate to an account of a province would but blur the more comprehensive view which it is sought to give in this general sketch of Ireland as a whole.
This is a time of transition the old order changeth, yielding place to new, - and the new order has not yet taken shape. The administrative system of the country will necessarily undergo profound modifications under the new regime. It is hoped that a brief account of the system as it existed until a few months ago will be of use and will assist an understanding of the nature of the changes brought about.
