Mary Anne Sadlier 1820-1903 Introduction to Her Life and Work

Quick overview Mary Anne Sadlier [1820-1903] is one of the most important Irish novelists of the 19th Century. Highly feted and a best-selling novelist in her own era, she has, unfortunately, suffered from “the tyranny of the contemporary” and today is virtually unknown even in her own county of Cavan. This book represents an important attempt to assist in the restoration of what should be her major literary reputation.
