Beschreibung
Wide-ranging and challenging, this authoritative and balanced account of Irish history traces over two thousand years of turbulent change from the earliest prehistoric communities and Christian settlements to the present day. Religious confrontation and the emergence of the political issues at the root of the current `Troubles' are among the topics raised, while there is also a special section devoted to the island's language and literature.
