Description
The six papers in this volume discuss the impact of the Union between Britain and Ireland that lasted from the beginning of the nineteenth century to just after the First World War. By attempting to view familiar issues from new standpoints, these papers throw light on the intractable "Irish question". The text is aimed at scholars and students of British and Irish history in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
