At Home and Abroad

At Home and Abroad

Between 1890 and 1893, Somerville and Ross made at least four significant tours, through Connemara (1890), Bordeaux (1891), Wales (1893), and Denmark (1893). They subsequently published account of these journeys in various periodicals and at least three of them eventually ended up in book form. They both later made a tour of the Aran Islands in 1895, which Ross originally wrote up for Harper’s magazine and then republished as “An Outpost of Ireland” in Some Irish Yesterdays (1906). Somerville made three more significant tours after Ross’s death in 1915, one to Sicily (1920), one to Spain in (1926) (sic), and one to the United States (1928).
