Book Synopsis The Irish Hedge School and Its Books, 1695-1831 by : Antonia McManus

Book excerpt: For over 136 years the hedge schoolmasters were the dominant educators in Ireland. For most of that time, they worked underground due to the strictures of the Penal Laws. Their books were an eclectic mix of romantic chapbooks, as well as the best available literature of the eighteenth century, purchased by parents as cheap piracies of expensive English originals.
