From the dust jacket flap notes:” Here is a readable outline of Irish history that traces the successive invasions of Celts, Vikings and Norman’s, the Tudor and Stuart settlements, and the gradual emergence of the “Irish question” in British political life. Much of the book is concerned with the failure of the union with Great Britain, and the consequent partition of the island. And the author finds the origins of today’s Irish troubles in the political, religious, social and economic problems of the past. A special chapter on discovering Irish history helps the reader to seek in modern Ireland the marks left by previous generations. Concise biographies of major soldiers, statesmen, patriots, and Irish writers, a list of important dates, suggestions for further reading, and an index round off an invaluable and attractively illustrated introductory study.” Book’s been stored in a smoke free home with three short haired pets.
