Travels in Ireland - Part 3

Kohl's journey through Ireland in 1844 provides a vivid account of the country's culture and struggles just before the Great Famine. He explores various provinces, discussing education innovations, the '98 Rebellion, and agrarian crime. His reflections include visits to significant locations like the Vale of Avoca and encounters with notable figures such as Daniel O'Connell. Kohl's keen interest in Irish folklore and the lives of its people reveals the resilience of a culture that faced colonial oppression, ultimately foreshadowing the devastation of the Famine.
