Popular History of Ireland, Book 12

by Thomas D'Arcy McGee

This book explores the period in Irish history from the Act of Union in 1801, which formally united Great Britain and Ireland, to the Catholic Emancipation Act of 1829, which granted religious freedom to Irish Catholics. McGee's work delves into the complex political landscape of the time, examining the struggles for political and religious equality, as well as the social and economic conditions that shaped Irish life during this turbulent era. It provides a detailed account of key events, figures, and movements that shaped Ireland's trajectory toward a more inclusive society.
