Historical Dictionary of Ireland (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781538157336)

Although Historical Dictionary of Ireland, Second Edition covers important topics and personalities dating back to the earliest times, the principal focus is on modern Ireland since 1750, with special emphasis on those periods closest to the present. The core of the historical dictionary is an alphabetical survey of key topics, events, places, political organizations, social and cultural institutions, economic phenomena and trends, social and cultural movements, and leading political, religious, scientific, and cultural personalities.

Historical Dictionary of Ireland contains a chronology, an introduction, an extensive bibliography, and cross-referenced entries on important personalities and aspects of the country's politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Ireland.
