William Bulfin
William Bulfin (1864-1910) was an Irish journalist and author known for his vivid travel writing and social commentary. Born in County Offaly, he emigrated to Argentina in 1884, where he initially worked as a sheep herder before turning to journalism. Bulfin became the editor of The Southern Cross, where he published his insightful articles about life in Buenos Aires and later, his experiences cycling through Ireland, which were compiled into the celebrated book 'Rambles in Éirinn'. His work reflected a deep appreciation for Irish culture and a critical perspective on socio-political issues of his time, contributing significantly to Irish nationalism.
