It was written in Irish between 1827 and 1835 by Humphrey O'Sullivan, while living in Callan, Co. Kilkenny. He followed his father's calling when he became a hedgeschool master but later went on to be-come a prosperous businessman and philanthropist. No aspect of life escaped his attention, from the dire poverty and degradation of the peasantry to the flora and fauna of the region.
