Book Overview

Sketches In Erris And Tyrawly is a book written by Caesar Otway and published in 1841. The book is a collection of sketches and descriptions of the landscape, people, and customs of the Erris and Tyrawly regions in County Mayo, Ireland. Otway, who was a journalist and writer, travelled extensively through these areas and documented his experiences in this book. The book is divided into chapters, each one focusing on a different aspect of life in these regions. Otway describes the rugged and wild beauty of the landscape, the poverty of the people, and their struggles to survive. He also writes about the local customs and traditions, including the music and dance of the area. The book provides a fascinating insight into life in rural Ireland in the mid-19th century. Otway's vivid descriptions and observations bring the people and places to life, and the book is a valuable historical document. It is also a testament to Otway's skill as a writer and his deep love for the Irish countryside and its people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
