Sketches of Irish Character
Born in Dublin into the Anglo-Irish gentry, Anna Maria Hall moved to London when she was fifteen where she became famous for her books, plays and travel writing. It was her book, Sketches of Irish Character (1829) which made her a household name. This modern critical edition is based on Hall's third, revised edition of 1844.
Mrs. S.C. Hall
In 1829, Mrs. S.C. Hall, an Irishwoman living in England, published Sketches of Irish Life and Character. This and many subsequent works established her reputation as a sharp interpreter of Irish character. What makes her work particularly interesting is that it displays a tolerance and lack of bigotry that was unusual for its time, and that she is openly critical of government mismanagement and misrule. This book explores her life and literary achievement.

The Buccaneer
Anna Maria Hall (1800-1881) was an Irish novelist who often published as "Mrs. S. C. Hall." She was born Anna Maria Fielding in Dublin, but left Ireland at the age of 15. Nevertheless, her home country was the theme for several of her most successful books, such as Sketches of Irish Character (1829), Lights and Shadows of Irish Character (1838), Marian (1839), and The Whiteboy (1845). She wrote numerous stories for children, like Grandmamma's Pockets (1849) and Midsummer Eve: A Fairy Tale of Love (1870) and from 1828 to 1837 she was editor of the Juvenile Forget Me Not, an annual published in London. Other works are The Buccaneer (1832), and many sketches in the Art Journal, of which her husband, Samuel Carter Hall (1800-1889), was editor. With him she also collaborated on a work entitled Ireland, its Scenery, Character, etc. Mrs. Hall was a prolific writer; her descriptive talents were considerable, as also was her power of depicting character. She wrote some 50 titles, but few are still remembered.
