A fascinating archive of letters detailing life of the Blasket Islands from 1947 to the evacuation 1953 from the hand of Risteard O Glaisne. These are reproduced from the originals and were retained by the family, and have never been published. O Glaisne spent several summers of the Islands where he met De Valera in 1947. Also included are some letters from Island residents he kept in contact with after their resettling on the mainland.
