On New Year's Day 1878 the judicial framework was significantly modernised by the establishment of a single new High Court and Court of Appeal, in succession to a number of historic courts. In turn the political settlements, north and south, of the early 1920s resulted in new court systems. This book is both an account of all those new court systems, and their origins, and a biographical study, individual and collective, of the senior judges of Ireland (approximately 80 men in total) in the last third of the 19th century and the initial decades of the 20th century. It is an overall narrative of appointments, retirements and judicial issues in that era. This exploration of how the courts and judges worked, and the nature of their connection to wider civic and political society, renders them and their relation to that wider society more accessible outside the field of legal history itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daire Hogan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1801512043\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781801512046\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Four Courts Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/07\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Daire Hogan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48997306695935,"sku":"9781801512046","price":84.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-judges-of-ireland-1866-1921-daire-hogan-9781801512046","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
