Book excerpt: Excerpt from Origin and Character of the British People It being generally admitted that the natives of the South and West of Ireland, as also those of the greater part of Wales, differ as regards their character both from Englishmen and Scotchmen, an attempt will be made in the following pages to explain the existence of this difference, and to trace to their source these hereditary characteristics. The qualities of individuals influence to a large extent their actions, which form collectively the history of the country in which they live. The better, therefore, we understand the character and inclination of individuals the more fully shall we comprehend the social and moral life which predominates in the country to which they belong.
