Somerville and Martin Ross follows Major Sinclair Yeates, an Englishman who becomes a Resident Magistrate in rural Ireland. Expecting a relatively straightforward official appointment, Yeates instead finds himself surrounded by eccentric neighbours, unpredictable servants, sporting adventures and situations he rarely understands completely. Much of the humour comes from the contrast between Yeates's attempts to impose order and the complicated local world around him. Filled with hunting, horses and colourful characters, the stories provide an affectionate and highly entertaining portrait of Irish country life around the turn of the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folio Vault","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":55216431825235,"sku":null,"price":5.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Good","offer_id":55421126508883,"sku":null,"price":3.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1085\/2951\/6883\/files\/593.jpg?v=1792703357","url":"https:\/\/thefoliovault.com\/products\/experiences-of-an-irish-r-m-folio-society-593","provider":"Folio Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
