Read Ireland
The Landed Gentry and Aristocracy of Meath by Art Kavanagh
(Hardback; 50.00 Euro / 60.00 USD / 40.00 UK; 240 pages, with
black-and-white photos throughout)
This book about the Gentry & Aristocracy of Meath is the 6th in
the series and explores the background and history of 19
families. The book is packed with detail and anecdotes and sets
the family histories against the larger canvas that is the
history of Ireland from the 12th century to modern times. The
many illustrations are aptly chosen and many have been printed
in book form for the first time. Only 1000 copies of this book
have been printed and so it is a limited first edition. It is a
‘must’ for anyone interested in Meath history.

Easter 1916 by Charles Townsend
(Hardback; 25.00 Euro / 30.00 USD / 20.00 UK; 440 pages with
8-page black-and-white photo insert)
Before Easter 1916 Dublin had been a city much like any other
British city, comparable to Bristol or Liverpool and part of a
complex, deep-rooted British world. Many of Dublin's inhabitants
wanted to weaken or terminate London's rule but there remained a
vast and conflicting range of visions of that future: far more
immediate was the unfolding disaster of the First World War that
had put home rule' issues on ice for the duration. The
devastating events of that Easter changed everything. Both the
rising itself and - even more significantly - the ferocious
British response ended any sense at all that Dublin could be
anything other than the capital of an independent country, as an
entire nation turned away in revulsion from the British
artillery and executions. As we approach the 90th anniversary of
the rebellion it is time for a new account of what really
happened over those fateful few days. What did the rebels
actually hope to achieve? What did the British think they were
doing? And how were the events really interpreted by ordinary
people across Ireland? Vivid, authoritative and gripping, Easter
1916 is a major work.

Northern Ireland: The Origins of the Troubles by Thomas
Hennessey
(Hardback; 30.00 Euro / 36.00 USD / 24.00 UK; 450 pages)
Northern Ireland's Troubles are the tragedy of modern Irish
history. Thomas Hennessey's study traces the long course of
events that led to the climactic events of October 1968 and ends
with the decision of the Provisional IRA to go to war with the
British state in 1970. Many of Hennessey's conclusions are
controversial. The Troubles were the product of a long
inter-communal dispute between Unionist and Nationalist. From
the start, Nationalists in Northern Ireland never accepted the
legitimacy of the state while Unionists regarded Nationalists as
a disloyal fifth column. But by the early 1960s it seemed that
this old pattern of distrust was being replaced by a growing
rapprochement between the two communities. A new generation of
political leaders in Belfast and Dublin opened a dialogue that
held out great promise. But the liberal temper of the times
proved to be an illusion. The old antagonisms were too enduring.
By 1969, when British troops were deployed to prevent civil war,
the sectarian genie was out of the bottle. Soon the Troubles
mutated into an insurgency against British rule in Northern
Ireland. The result was tragedy.

British Voices: From the Irish War of Independence 1918-1921 by
William Sheehan
(Hardback; 23.00 Euro / 27.00 USD / 18.00 UK; 250 pages, with
black-and-white photographs throughout)
The Irish War of Independence has generated a wealth of
published material but very little from a British perspective.
Many British soldiers, sailors and airmen who served in Ireland
from 1918-1921 left accounts of their service. Most describe
military operations, views on the IRA, the Irish, the actions of
their own forces, morale and relationships with local
communities. Secret contacts between the British and the IRA and
the use and abuse of intelligence are described. The author has
gone deep into British military archives to unearth never before
published accounts.

Killarney: History and Heritage edited by Jim Larner
(Hardback; 25.00 Euro / 30.00 USD / 20.00 UK; 320 pages, with
full-colour and black-and-white photos throughout)
Despite the popular perception of a crowded, commercialised
tourist destination, Killarney and the beautiful landscape
around it have a rich and varied history and heritage. To mark
the 250th anniversary of the founding of Killarney town, a team
of experts was commissioned to contribute to this first book
detailing its history and heritage.

New Gill History of Ireland
---------------------------
The Gill History of Ireland originally appeared in eleven
volumes between 1972 and 1975. It was succeeded by a proposed
six-volume series entitled New Gill History of Ireland in 1990,
although in the event only five volumes were published. Now the
revised and re-written series is published in its entirely.

Medieval Ireland by Michael Richter
(Paperback; 18.00 Euro / 23.00 USD / 12.00 UK; 217 pages)
Medieval Ireland: The Enduring Tradition is an overview of Irish
society from the coming of Christianity in the fourth century to
the Reformation in the sixteenth. Such a broad survey reveals
features otherwise not easily detected. For all the complexity
of political developments, Irish society remained basically
stable and managed to withstand the onslaught of both the
Vikings and the English. The inherent strength of Ireland
consisted in the cultural heritage from pre-historic times,
which remained influential throughout the centuries discussed
here.
Irish history has traditionally been described either in
isolation or in the manner in which it was influenced by outside
forces, especially by England. This book strikes a different
balance. First, the time span covered is longer than usual, and
more attention is paid to the early medieval centuries than to
the later period. Secondly, less emphasis is placed in this book
on the political or military history of Ireland than on general
social and cultural aspects. As a result, a more mature
interpretation of medieval Ireland emerges, one in which social
and cultural norms inherited from pre-historic times are seen to
survive right through the Middle Ages. They gave Irish society a
stability and inherent strength unparalleled in Europe.
Christianity came in as an additional, enriching factor.

Sixteenth Century Ireland by Colm Lennon
(Paperback; 18.00 Euro / 23.00 USD / 12.00 UK; 400 pages)
In 1500, most of Ireland lay outside the ambit of English royal
power. Only a small area around Dublin was directly administered
by the crown. The rest of the island was run in more or less
autonomous fashion by Anglo-Norman magnates or Gaelic
chieftains.
By 1600, there had been a huge extension of English royal power.
First, the influence of the semi-independent magnates was
broken; second, in the 1590s crown forces successfully fought a
war against the last of the old Gaelic strongholds in Ulster.
The secular conquest of Ireland was, therefore, accomplished in
the course of the century. But the Reformation made little
headway. The Anglo-Norman community remained stubbornly
Catholic, as did the Gaelic nation. Their loss of political
influence did not result in the expropriation of their lands.
Most property still remained in Catholic hands. England's
failure to effect a revolution in church as well as in state
meant that the conquest of Ireland was incomplete.The
seventeenth century, with its wars of religion, was the
consequence.
------------------------------------
Nineteenth Century Ireland by D. George Boyce
(Paperback; 18.00 Euro / 23.00 USD / 12.00 UK; 425 pages)
Nineteenth century Ireland began and ended in armed revolt. The
blood insurrections of 1798 were the proximate reasons for the
passing of the Act of Union two years later. The ‘long
nineteenth century’ lasted until 1922, by which time the
institutions of modern Ireland were in place against a
background of the Great War, the Ulster rebellion and the armed
uprising of nationalist Ireland. The years between 1800 and
1922 were an attempt to make the union work. The hope was that,
in an imperial structure, the ethnic, religious and national
differences of the inhabitants of Ireland could be reconciled
and eliminated.
The search for stability proved elusive. Nationalist Ireland
mobilized a mass democratic movement under O’Connell to secure
Catholic Emancipation, before seeing its world transformed by
the social cataclysm of the Great Famine. At the same time, the
Protestant north-east of Ulster was feeling the first benefits
of the Industrial Revolution. Although post-Famine Ireland
modernized rapidly, only the north-east had a modern economy.
The mixture of Protestantism and manufacturing industry
integrated into the greater United Kingdom and gave a new twist
to the traditional Irish Protestant hostility to Catholic
political demands. In the home rule period from the 1880s to
1914, the prospect of partition moved from being almost
unthinkable to being almost inevitable.
Nineteenth-century Ireland collapsed in the various wars and
rebellions of 1912-22. Like many other parts of Europe then and
since, it had proved that an imperial superstructure can contain
domestic ethnic rivalries, but cannot always eliminate them.
------------------------------------
Twentieth Century Ireland by Dermot Keogh
(Paperback; 18.00 Euro / 23.00 USD / 12.00 UK; 598 pages)
Twentieth-Century Ireland is a revised and extended study of the
long twentieth century, surveying politics, administrative
history, social and religious history, culture and censorship,
politics, literature and art. It explores central but neglected
features of modern Irish history, presenting an inclusive
narrative.
This is a book about the establishment and consolidation of the
new Irish state. Dermot Keogh highlights the long tragedy of
emigration and its effect on the Irish psyche and on the
under-performance of the Irish economy. He emphasises the loss
of the new-found opportunities for reform of the 1960s and early
70s. Membership of the EEC, now EU, had a diminished impact due
to short-term and sectionally motivated political thinking and
an antiquated government structure.
The despair of the 1950s revisited the country in the 1980s as
almost an entire generation felt compelled to emigrate, very
often as undocumented workers in the United States.
Dermot Keogh also argues that the violence in Northern Ireland
from the late 1960s had a major hidden impact on the government
of the Irish state. He presents the crisis as an Anglo-Irish
failure which was turned around only when the British government
acknowledged that the Irish government had a vital role to play
in the resolution of the problem.
Dermot Keogh extends his analysis to include a wide-ranging
survey of the most contentious events - financial corruption,
child sexual abuse, scandals in the Catholic Church - between
1994 and 2005.

1916: The Easter Rising by Tim Pat Coogan
(Hardback; 20.00 Euro / 25.00 USD / 15.00 UK; 190 pages, with
photos throughout)
Tim Pat Coogan writes an account of the Rising by introducing
the major players, themes and outcomes of a drama that would
profoundly affect 20th-century Irish history. The day-to-day
events of the Rising are detailed in this remarkable story and
enhanced by photographs, maps and historical documents of Dublin
during those bloody six days. The result is not only an
important history of a turning point in Ireland's struggle for
freedom, but also a testament to the men and women of courage
and conviction who were prepared to give their lives for what
they believed was right. An illustrated account of the events,
personalities and repercussions of the Irish rebellion.
----------------------------------------
Irish Civil War by Tim Pat Coogan and George Morrison
(Large Hardback; 25.00 Euro / 30.00 USD / 20.00 UK; 290 pages
with photos throughout)
It began in June, 1922, with the ratification of a treaty
between Great Britain and the fledgling Irish state that called
for an oath of allegiance to the king, a governor general
appointed by the crown, and the partition of six counties in
Northern Ireland. And during the eleven months the conflict
lasted, brother fought against brother, sundering families for
generations, and opening a divide in the country's politics that
only now is beginning to fade. This unrivaled pictorial record
and remarkable history of the war's passage pays poignant
testimony to the courageous men and women prepared to fight to
the death for what they believed morally right. It also serves
as a sober reminder of the excesses of political zeal and how
they came to haunt future generations.

The Big House in Ireland by Valerie Pakenham
(Hardback; 20.00 Euro / 25.00 USD / 15.00 UK; 192 with colour
photos throughout)
The idiosyncratic splendour and tragic decline of the Irish
country house and its colourful denizens over 400 years. The
big Irish House has haunted the Irish landscape and Irish
imagination for nearly four hundred years. Gaelic poets cursed
or celebrated its power. Irish historians have debated its role
for good or ill in the countryside. And generations of Irish
novelists have made it a central presence in their books. In
this anthology the idiosyncratic life in the Big House is
portrayed in a chronological structure creating a documentary
history full of splendour and tragedy. This fascinating book is
illustrated with contemporary drawings, engravings, maps and
paintings and by Thomas Pakenham s evocative photographs.

Highlights from the Previous Issue:

Eoin O’Duffy: A Self-Made Hero by Fearghal McGarry
(Hardback; 35.00 Euro / 42.00 USD / 25.00 UK; 440 pages, with 20
black-and-white photographs)
Eoin O'Duffy was one of the most controversial figures of modern
Irish history. A guerrilla leader and protege of Michael
Collins, he rose rapidly through the ranks of the republican
movement. By 1922 he was chief of staff of the IRA, a member of
the Irish Republican Brotherhood's Supreme Council, and a Sinn
Fein deputy in Dail Eireann. As chief of police, O'Duffy was the
strongest defender of the Irish Free State only to become, after
his emergence as leader of the Blueshirt movement in 1933, the
greatest threat to its survival. Increasingly drawn to
international fascism, he founded Ireland's first fascist party,
and led an Irish Brigade to fight under General Franco in the
Spanish Civil War. He died in wartime Dublin, a Nazi
collaborator, and a broken man. This study, the first ever
biography of Eoin O'Duffy, draws on unpublished archival and
personal papers to trace his journey from revolutionary
republicanism to fascism. It examines the importance of cultural
forces, including the legacy of the Irish-Ireland movement,
Catholicism, anti-communism, and O'Duffy's ideas on sports,
morality, and masculinity to explain his descent into extremism.
McGarry peels away the public persona to reveal a complex
picture of the motives, which drove this extraordinary career. A
crusading moralist and advocate of teetotalism, obsessed with
the need to counter public immorality, who was at the same time
a closet homosexual and alcoholic, O'Duffy's remarkable life was
characterised by self-aggrandisement, fantasy, and
contradiction. This fascinating biography explores themes as
diverse as cultural nationalism, violence, sectarianism,
militarism, and masculinity to shed new light on Irish
republicanism and the politics of interwar European fascist
movements. It is essential reading for anyone seeking to
understand the complexities of culture, politics, and society in
interwar Ireland.

The Story of Chicago May by Nuala O’Faolain
(Trade Paperback; 15.00 Euro / 18.00 USD / 11.00 UK; 307 pages)
Nuala O'Faolain received critical acclaim for her candid memoirs
Are You Somebody? and Almost There. Here, she embraces the life
of a notorious criminal, an unrepentant and enigmatic daughter
of Ireland Chicago May. Legend says that May was a mesmerizing
beauty, with startling blue eyes and hair spun of red and gold
who captured the hearts of men wherever she went. At nineteen,
she stole her family's savings and ran away from her home in
rural Ireland to America, arriving first at Nebraska. May then
travelled to Chicago and onto New York where she worked in a
variety of unsavoury jobs and was soon hailed in tabloids as a
Queen of the Und erworld'. But this was nothing in comparison
with what was to follow. In 1901, May had fallen in love with
big-time criminal Eddie Guerin and followed him to Paris where
together, they robbed the American Express. But they were both
caught and sent to prison. She survived, returning to America to
reinvent herself again and again until her death in 1929.

As I Saw It: Reviewing Over 30 Years of Fianna Fail and Irish
Politics by Padraig Faulkner
(Trade Paperback; 15.00 Euro / 20.00 USD / 10.00 UK; 196 pages,
with 8 page black-and-white photo insert)
This book is a powerful and unique contribution to the history
of Irish politics. From his early days as deputy for Louth, to
serving in the governments of Lemass, Lynch and Haughey, Padraig
Faulkner was a Government Minister and distinguished Ceann
Comhairle during pivotal periods in Ireland’s history. For the
first time, in this book, Faulkner gives his personal account of
behind-the-scenes meetings and events throughout his long
career, including the turbulent times of the Arms Crisis,
1969-71, the Northern Troubles, the Fianna Fail leadership
battles and the often-clandestine inner workings of the party.
--------------------------------------
Alleluia America!: An Irish Journalist in Bush Country by Carole
Coleman
(Trade Paperback; 15.00 Euro / 20.00 USD / 10.00 UK; 220 pages)
Irish journalist Carole Coleman made world headlines when she
interviewed President George W. Bush on live television,
challenging him on the war in Iraq in a way that few journalists
had dared. The results made for compelling viewing.
Her first book, 'Alleluia America! An Irish Journalist in Bush
Country' is equally gripping. With Pollsters declaring that the
2004 Presidential election was swung by moral values and the
Republican strategy of courting religious voters, Carole decided
to explore for herself the largely un-chartered territory of
‘Bush Country’; States where religion is now the driving force
that motivates people’s lives and where a president who
unashamedly declares, "I don’t see how you can be
President…without a relationship with the Lord" is met with
widespread and sincere approval.
Travelling deep into the heart of Bush’s America, in an attempt
to tap into the psyche of those all important ‘religious voters’
Carole talks to Baptists, Evangelical Christians, Catholics,
Mormons, Amish, Jews, Muslims and many shades between. Poignant,
amusing and insightful the result is a rare and fascinating
outsider’s glimpse into the heart of a peculiarly American
phenomenon.

decades of Gaelic Games’ achievement.
------------------------------------
Time Added On: The Autobiography of George Hook
(Hardback; 23.00 Euro / 28.00 USD / 17.00 UK; 250 pages)
In his autobiography George Hook will tell his amazing life
story for the first time, from his childhood in Cork right
through to his emergence as one of the sharpest and most
outspoken media commentators of today. Hook tells with painful
frankness of his life and his failure as a son, as a father, as
a husband and as a businessman. He also tells about his career
in catering and the constant struggle to keep the banks, his
creditors and a nervous breakdown at bay. He found solace in
rugby. Here for the first time is his account of how he gave
Eddie O'Sullivan his first big break, how they made a success of
Connacht, and how the relationship changed. It covers his
controversial days coaching London Irish and how he prepared the
USA for the first rugby World Cup. He writes with a sometimes
unsettling honesty about the impact it all had on his life and
the lives of those he was closest to, and how he both saved his
marriage and found happiness and redemption in the career for
which he was made.

Summer in the City by Pauline McLynn
(Trade Paperback; 14.00 Euro / 17.50 USD / 11.00 UK; 300 pages)
Lucy White can't quite believe what's happened to her happy,
ordinary life. Ending up homeless - not to mention husbandless -
has come as an almighty shock. All she wants to do is lie low
for a while, but when she arrives in a quiet street in South
London she's in for a surprise. The residents of Farewell Square
are anything but quiet. There's a housewife with a secret that
needs to be shared, a publicist whose behaviour outside office
hours would shock his clients and an artist who can't seem to
control her lodgers. They're as intrigued by Lucy as she is by
them, and as she's drawn into their midst, she realises that
life can be kind as well as cruel. And that no one has to be
lonely if they don't want to be.

Old World Colony: Cork and South Munster 1630-1830 by David
Dickson
(Trade Paperback; 30.00 Euro / 36.00 USD / 24.00 UK; 730 pages)
This ground-breaking study traces the fortunes of one of
Ireland's wealthiest regions between 1630 and 1830. South
Munster's strengths were its agricultural resources and its
prime Atlantic location, and the rise of the city of Cork from
insignificance to international importance was critical in the
exploitation of this wealth as well as being symbolic of a new
commercial order. Cork's wholesale hinterland embraced much of
Kerry, Waterford and Co. Cork itself, and the study eaxamines
the whole of the region. 'Old world colony' traces how rural
society and farming evolved, and surveys the world of landowners
and of the marginalized, of wealthy merchants and the teeming
masses of the towns. It seeks to integrate what is usually set
apart - social, economic and political history - in a fresh and
unfamiliar panorama of material and public life across the
heartlands of 'the Hidden Ireland' from the era of civil war and
expropriation in the seventeenth century to the era of Catholic
resurgence in the 1820s. Colonization and commerce transformed
the region, but change came at a price. Many of the problems of
pre-Famine Ireland - gross income inequality and land scarcity -
were precociously evident in South Munster. This study therefore
sets the more familiar landmarks of the nineteenth century -
agrarian conflict, structural poverty, and the collapse of food
supply - in a new and more complex historical framework.
