About this book
Michael James Whitty (1795 - 1873), newspaper editor and proprietor, native of Enniscorthy, Co Wexford, commenced his literary career in London, and among his earliest friends were Sir James Bacon and George Cruikshank. He published anonymously in 1824 two volumes of Tales of Irish Life stories which depict the customs and condition of the people of his homeland, and were a great success, being reprinted in America and also translated into French and German.
George Cruikshank (27 September 1792 – 1 February 1878) was a British caricaturist and book illustrator, praised as the "modern Hogarth" during his life. His book illustrations for his friend Charles Dickens, and many other authors, reached an international audience. (Wikipedia)
