W. Rolleston is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book examines and contrasts the political, social, and economic conditions of Ireland and Poland under their respective governing powers during a time of significant reform and national identity struggles. The likely topic of the book is the exploration of national rights, governance, and the treatment of these two distinct nationalities under British and German dominion. In this comparative analysis, Rolleston outlines the historical context of Ireland and Poland, highlighting the reforms in Ireland that aimed to improve the lives of its inhabitants while contrasting them with the severe repressive measures faced by the Polish under German rule. He emphasizes various advancements made in Ireland, such as land reform, educational opportunities, and local governance, which fostered a sense of autonomy and progress. Rolleston argues that while Ireland has made notable strides toward equity and self-governance, Poland's plight is marked by oppression and cultural eradication. Throughout the book, he aims to debunk the narrative that portrays Ireland as a member of the subjugated nationalities, instead presenting it as a nation making positive progress within the framework of the United Kingdom.
